CHELCO will begin its Annual Meeting one hour earlier than originally scheduled on Saturday, April 12. The business meeting will now start at 10 AM, with doors opening at 8 AM. All planned activities will proceed as scheduled.

We kindly ask that scholarship applicants still plan to attend the Annual Meeting. However, we fully understand and support anyone who chooses to attend Walton County Sheriff’s Deputy Will May’s funeral and is concerned about making it on time. If that is the case for you, please let us know and we will excuse your absence. Applicants attending Deputy May's services will still be eligible to win a scholarship.

We deeply appreciate your understanding as we make this adjustment to allow attendees and staff the opportunity to attend Walton County Sheriff’s Deputy Will May’s funeral. Our thoughts and prayers are with Deputy May’s family, friends, and the entire Walton County Sheriff’s Office during this difficult time.
