“Each year, Coconino County honors those who have sacrificed to serve the country. We express special gratitude to the National Guard. Coconino County has benefited from a National Guard Team, who has supported our COVID-19 response.

This year and every year, thank you to those who serve,” said County Manager, James Jayne.
