By Brandi Makuski

The Portage Co. Sheriff’s Office welcomed a new records specialist on June 27.

Rosholt-native Tammy Henderson was sworn in to the role by Sheriff Mike Lukas before a roomful of deputies and other staff from PCSO.

Henderson’s background involves longtime work with Lamers Bus Lines, Inc., where she worked as a manager before joining the sheriff’s office. During her time there, she worked with several retired law enforcement officers who took up bus driving as a part-time job.

“It just sounded like something I wanted to do, just by reading the job description. It sounded like a new adventure,” Henderson said.

She lives with her husband and family in Plover.
