On Tuesday, February 9, 2021, Sheriff C. Atkinson was presented with the Dick Knox Distinguished Service Award by the NCHSAA (North Carolina High School Athletic Association). Even though the award was given to Sheriff Atkinson, he and NCHSAA recognized the awesome service of coaching (youth soccer, middle school football, high school football, wrestling), officiating(volleyball, basketball, baseball, football) & mentoring (Boy Scouts of America) ECSO deputies provide to youth in Edgecombe County.

Sheriff Atkinson strongly encourages his ECSO team to continue to stay engaged within our communities.
