The Ceremony was held at the Historic Courthouse and followed COVID-19 protocols to ensure the safety of all those in attendance. The backdrop was the Commission Chambers adorned with Christmas decorations and the positive energy felt by all those ready to take the oath to serve this community together.
Chairman Michelle Morgan welcomed everyone and introduced her priest, Father Gaurav Shroff from Our Lady of Perpetual Help Catholic Church who provided a heartfelt invocation, followed by Minister of Music/Administrator Bryant Turner from Roopville Road Baptist Church who also serves as Chairman of the Carroll County School Board who sang a beautiful song that set the tone for the ceremony. Carroll County is appreciative of the partnership with the Carroll County School Board whose members were also sworn in during the ceremony.
