Auxiliary is composed of volunteers whose objective is to
augment the strength of the Sheriff’s Of?ce and be a supple-
ment to regular staff of Deputies and Correction Of?cers.
The class is open to all persons who are 19 and older, have a
high school diploma, are citizens of the United States and are
of impeccable character.

In 2014, the Sheriff’s Auxiliary donated 16,292 hours
to the Sheriff’s Of?ce and to the citizens of Lorain County.
These hours were accumulated in three basic areas of duty:

Cruiser Duty - Those meeting requirements and training
are permitted to ride with regular Deputies of the Sheriff’s
Of?ce. This assignment provides the capability of having
two-person patrol cars in the county. Their responsibility is
to augment the Road Deputy in the performance of his/her
duties.

Jail Duty - To augment the Correction Of?cer in the Cor-
rection Facility. The duties and responsibilities of persons
working in the Correction Facility are prescribed by law and
are very demanding.

Special Duty - To assist with traf?c control and security
at special functions such as the Lorain County Fair and nu-
merous other events and festivals throughout the county.

Anyone interested in applying for the next class of the
Lorain County Sheriff’s Auxiliary can obtain an application
by writing, calling or stopping at the Lorain County Sher-
iff’s Of?ce, 9896 Murray Ridge Road, in Elyria, or from the
Sheriff’s website, www.loraincountysheriff.com. Applica-
tion deadline is December 31, 2015.
