Not all heroes wear capes, but today ours do! 🦸♂️🦸♀️
In honor of National Superhero Day, we had a little fun with some of our CCSO deputies. Every day, they serve with dedication, courage, and compassion, cape or no cape.
One of our favorite moments today was with the kids from Kids Place Preschool MMO. They looked up at our deputy like he was a real-life superhero, and honestly, we think they’re right. 💙
Thank you to the men and women who protect our community and go above and beyond to keep Cleveland County safe. We appreciate you today and every day.

Out on the road, Deputy A. McCluney and Deputy J. McCluney serve side by side and continue a family tradition of service and commitment to keeping Cleveland County safe. 🚓💙

Feeling incredibly thankful and blessed for the amazing support shown at the 2026 STAR Golf Tournament! Because of your generosity, we’re able to help send 280 kids to STAR Summer Camp completely FREE.
Your kindness, time, and contributions truly make a difference in these kids’ lives by giving them a chance to learn, grow, and create unforgettable memories. We couldn’t have done this without each and every one of you.
