At the MCSO Advisory Council, our mission is simple but powerful: to support the brave men and women of law enforcement and their families. Through fundraising, community initiatives, and direct assistance, we work tirelessly to ensure that officers have the resources they need—both on and off duty.







April 19, 2022
The MCSO Advisory Council spring meeting was held at various MCSO facilities located off of 35th Avenue near the MCSO training center.
The MCSO helicopter made a landing at the training center, where members were able to get an up close look at this state of the art aircraft. Members were transported from the training center to the SWAT bard using the agency’s bearcat armored vehicles. In the SWAT barn, there was an impressive display of weapons from the SWAT team, equipment displays from the explosive ordinance disposal (EOD) unit, and several K9 units giving demonstrations. A catered meal was shared, along with remarks from Sheriff Penzone and MCSO Advisory Council board members. This was a unique opportunity for our members to experience the inner workings of some of MCSO’s elite units and we are thankful for the MCSO support.

In December 2021, the Advisory Council participated in a holiday toy drive to provide toys to families in need within the community.
Donations were collected for several months until the distribution event in December, where MCSO Cadets helped hand out toys. This is an annual event coordinated with Desert Rat Offroad Centers, St. Vincent de Paul, and Tuesday Morning stores.

2021 marked the 150th anniversary of the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office, and a limited edition commemorative rifle was created as a fundraiser for the Memorial Fund.
MCSO personnel presented rifle #1 to the generous collector who purchased this one-of-a-kind rifle.

The MCSO Advisory Council participated in a fundraising event in Carefree, AZ at the Sticks Golf & Cigar Lounge.
Several MCSO deputies were able to stop at the event, where participants competed against them in the shooting simulator.
Funds were raised for the MCSO Memorial Fund, and there was a lot of social interaction as well.












January 9, 2021
The 2021 National Sheriff’s Association was held at the Phoenix Convention Center, and MCSO had a great display to showcase the organization.
Members of the MCSO Advisory Council helped to man a booth for the MCSO Memorial Fund to sell T Shirts, collect fundraising donations, and raise awareness of the Memorial Fund.
MCSO Equipment on display included an airboat and underwater robots used by the Lake Patrol, multiple sheriff vehicles, drones, and the latest state of the art MCSO helicopter.

There was a membership meeting held at the MCSO SWAT Barn near the training center in West Phoenix.
The SWAT team had an impressive display of various MCSO vehicles, firearms, Explosive Ordnance Disposal equipment, and K9 units.
Members shared a catered dinner, received updates on the MCSO Advisory Council, and received some words from the Sheriff on the current state of the organization.










October 8, 2018
MCSO Advisory Council members were invited to participate in training to learn defensive tactics used by law enforcement officers.
MCSO Personnel reviewed the basics of personal safety, situational awareness, threat analysis, and what to do when presented with a situation where a defensive response is needed.
This tactical training was tailored to the abilities of the attendees and provided useful tools for our members to help keep themselves safe.








May 20, 2018
The Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office Memorial Tribute Ceremony is held in May each year to pay respects to fallen law enforcement officers.
The ceremony includes a few words from the sheriff, an overview of the MCSO Memorial Fund, a rifle salute to fallen officers, and a flyover by multiple agencies.
The statue of Jake, the riderless horse which symbolizes officers who have been lost in the line of duty, was originally purchased by the Advisory Council to be placed in front of the MCSO headquarters in downtown Phoenix.







March 15, 2017
In March 2017, we had our spring membership meeting at the MCSO Headquarters in downtown Phoenix.
This was an opportunity for our members to get together and enjoy a catered dinner outside of the entrance to the headquarters and enjoy the great spring weather.
Sheriff Penzone spent some time to discuss the Advisory Council and how much he values the contributions of our group. Members received a tour of the MCSO Headquarters building including the Sheriff’s office and the 911 emergency call center.

The Scottsdale Auto Museum is a private collection of rare automobiles that is not open to the public.
The MCSO Advisory Council was fortunate to be able to hold a membership meeting at the museum, which included a catered dinner and a presentation by Advisory Council board members.
Members were able to spend some time with the Sheriff, receive updates on the state of our organization, and tour an impressive display of rare and unique automobiles.
