COLUMBIA — The Maury County Sheriff's Department Citizens Academy Alumni Association is asking the community to come out tonight, Wednesday, May 14, to McCreary's Irish Pub & Eatery on the Columbia square for a fundraiser supporting local public safety efforts, according to a post from McCreary's Irish Pub. The Citizens Academy program builds bridges between law enforcement and the residents they serve — graduates come away with a deeper understanding of how the Sheriff's Department operates and a stronger commitment to community partnership.
Supporting events like this one is a tangible way for Maury County residents to stand behind the men and women who put on a badge every day. McCreary's has been a steady fixture on the downtown square, hosting community gatherings that bring people together around a table. Tonight's event is open to the public.
