Tangipahoa Parish Sheriff Daniel Edwards announces that the application deadline for the Louisiana Sheriffs’ Association annual scholarship has been extended until Friday, May 15, 2020. The original deadline was April 1, 2020, however, postponed due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

Club Deluxe Rd., Hammond, LA 70401. All applications must be received by the Tangipahoa Parish Sheriff’s Office no later than Friday, May 15.
