On Saturday morning, members of the Guyton community met with Sheriff Jimmy McDuffie and deputies of the Effingham County Sheriff’s Department in the first ever Unity in the Community event. The event, held at the Guyton Gym at the corner of 5th and Magnolia Street in Guyton, was a coordinated effort to bring parents, kids and other community leaders together with members of law enforcement in an effort to show both solidarity and fellowship. The event also gave Guyton residents an opportunity to get introduced to those deputies who patrol the streets and respond in cases of emergencies.
