The Saratoga County Sheriff’s Office joins with Amtrak and our public safety partners in observance of Rail Safety Week, September 21-27, 2020.
Coordinated by Amtrak, Operation Lifesaver Inc. and Operation Lifesaver Canada, Operation Clear Track aims to reduce the number of railway crossing and trespassing incidents in the U.S. and Canada — incidents which seriously injure or kill more than 2,100 people each year. The event is held during the annual observance of Rail Safety Week, September 21-27.
“The goal of Operation Clear Track and Rail Safety Week is to raise awareness of the importance of safe behavior near tracks and trains, in support of OLI’s mission to save lives,” said Operation Lifesaver, Inc. Executive Director Rachel Maleh.

The Sheriff's Office enjoyed a special visit today from 3 year old Mia and her Mom. Mia made cookies which she gave to Sheriff Zurlo to share with everyone here at the Sheriff's Office. She also brought treats for our four legged members of the K-9 unit and a hand drawn picture of Sheriff Zurlo enjoying time on the beach after work.
Thank you Mia, you made our day!
