The Winnfield Lions Club met on September 10, 2024, for the regular meeting and welcomed Sheriff Josh McAllister as speaker. The Sheriff’s Office oversees about 300 employees — officers, staff, and workers at the incarceration facilities. After briefly discussing on-going programs and new changes to better serve Winn citizens, the Sheriff fielded several questions about the first few months of office. One program that citizens have surely noticed is the Clean-up Crew that has been scouring the area of trash. The Sheriff has been pleasantly surprised with the level of public optimism and the brotherhood and cooperation of the sheriffs in Louisiana. He and his team have made service the primary object of the Winn Parish Sheriff’s Office.
