Fourteen “littles” and two parents attended a discussion with Sheriff Mike Mondul entitled “Inside the Penal System.” The High Sheriff gave the youth many examples of what would land them in the local facilities as well as maximum security facilities in the state and nation. Sheriff Mondul warned the students about involvement in gangs and the kinds of recruits they look for. The youth had lots of questions for the speaker. This event was held on Tuesday, February 28, 2017 in the United Way Large Conference Room and sponsored by the Community Foundation of the Dan River Region.
