Putts Fore Purpose HCSO Honors Courage at the ‘Corporal Daniel Podsiadly Golf Tournament’ and Raises $20,000 for Wounded Officer

Sheriff Reginald B. Scandrett welcomed players and guests to the Corporal Daniel Podsiadly Charity Golf Tournament held at Crystal Lake Golf & Country Club in Hampton, Georgia on November 13, 2023. This momentous event dedicated to supporting Corporal Daniel Podsiadly , who was wounded in the line of duty during the Hampton mass shooting in July 2023. The tournament raised awareness about the challenges faced by law enforcement officers injured in the line of duty and underscored the pressing need for legislative considerations to better support these heroes. Corporal Daniel Podsiadly, a dedicated member of the Henry County Sheriff’s Office, was honored with the Henry County Sheriff’s Office Combat Cross Award alongside the prestigious Wounded in Action (Purple Heart) Award. His courageous actions in pursuit of alleged assailant Andre Longmore epitomized the unwavering commitment and sacrifice exhibited by law enforcement officers every day. The highlight of the event was the presentation of a $20,000 check by the Henry County Sheriff's Office, in conjunction with the HCSO Foundation, to Corporal Daniel Podsiadly and his family. This generous contribution, made possible by tournament participants, sponsors, and individual donors, was aimed to alleviate the financial burdens the Podsiadly family faced during this time.
