🚓🚗 Grainger County Sheriff’s Department Car Show 2026 🚗🚓

We are proud to share the success of our Car Show held at Grainger County High School on May 2, 2026! With 77 incredible vehicles entered, it was a fantastic day filled with community spirit, beautiful rides, and a shared purpose.

Thanks to your support, we were able to raise funds for our Shop with a Cop Program, helping make a difference for children in our community.

We’d like to extend a huge thank you to everyone who made this event possible:
👏 Modern Woodmen for generously matching donations up to $1,000
👏 Grainger Automotive, O’Reilly Auto Parts (Bean Station & Blaine), and NAPA of Morristown for donating door prizes
👏 The talented Grainger County High School students who designed the flyers and built the amazing trophies awarded at the show

Events like this wouldn’t be possible without the continued support of our community. Each year, we’re proud to host events like our car show, bicycle ride, and more to bring people together and give back.

Thank you again to everyone who participated, donated, and came out to support us—we can’t wait to see you next year! ❤️

This week, May 3rd–May 9th, we proudly recognize Correctional Officer Week and honor the dedicated men and women who serve behind the walls every single day.

Correctional Officers work in one of the most challenging and often unseen roles in public safety. They maintain order, ensure safety, and show professionalism in environments that demand strength, patience, and resilience. Their commitment protects not only our facilities, but our entire community.

Today and every day, we thank you for your service, your sacrifice, and your unwavering dedication.

🇺🇸 We appreciate you. We stand with you.🇺🇸
