🥫 HELP US FILL THE BOXES!

The 5th Annual Beaufort County First Responder Food Drive is back!

From November 1 through December 11, first responders, military emergency services, local governments and community partners across Beaufort County are collecting nonperishable food to benefit Bluffton Self Help and HELP of Beaufort.

Last year, you helped us donate more than 4,000 pounds of food. This year, we’re setting the bar even higher:🎯 OUR GOAL: MORE THAN 5,000 POUNDS!

Donation boxes are located throughout Beaufort County. All donated food must be unopened, nonperishable and within its expiration date.

Pick up a few extra items on your next grocery trip and help us make sure our neighbors have food on their tables this holiday season.

The Beaufort County Sheriff’s Office is seeking the public’s assistance in locating two missing 16-year-old girls, Allison Spires of Lobeco and Jasmine Cruze of Beaufort.

According to information provided to deputies, Spires and Cruze were dropped off in the Shadow Moss Drive community around 9 p.m. to go trick-or-treating. Neither girl has been heard from since.

Spires is described as approximately 5 feet, 3 inches tall and weighing 110 pounds. Cruze is described as approximately 5 feet, 11 inches tall and weighing 92 pounds.

Family members are concerned for the girls’ safety and well-being, as this behavior is out of character for both teens.

The Beaufort County Sheriff’s Office urges anyone who may have seen Spires or Cruze, or who has information regarding their whereabouts, to contact law enforcement immediately.

Anyone with information is asked to call 911 or the Beaufort County Sheriff’s Office non-emergency dispatch line at 843-524-2777

Things are getting a little spooky in the Beaufort County Communications Center!

Our Emergency Services Dispatchers are bringing some Halloween spirit to the headset with their creative paper bag costumes! They may be hiding their faces, but there's no hiding the dedication it takes to answer the call, keep calm under pressure, and help get first responders where they need to be.

We're always looking for dedicated individuals to join our team and make a difference in our community. But don’t worry, no costume required! 😉

🎃 Happy Halloween from BCSO!

Halloween safety can be SPOOK-tacularly fun!

We love finding creative ways to educate our youngest residents while having a little fun along the way! We've put together a Halloween Safety Crossword Puzzle to help kids learn important trick-or-treating safety tips! Parents and guardians, print out a copy, grab some pencils, and see how many clues your little ghosts and goblins can solve!

Don't worry, we've included the answer key, too! 😉

Let's make this Halloween a fun, safe, and memorable one for everyone! 🧡🖤
