About

Located within the state of Missouri, the Camden County Sheriff's Office is a full-service law enforcement agency capable of enforcing all state and local statutes within its boundaries. The Operations Division conducts patrol operations throughout Camden County in two distinct districts.  In addition to County Wide Patrol, we also provide policing services in the Horseshoe Bend COPS District.

Our Detective Bureau investigates mostly felony matters in coordination with multiple neighboring agencies, the Lake of the Ozarks Major Case Squad, and other state and federal agencies.

Our Community Resource Officers are assigned to the Climax Springs and Edwards areas in Northwestern Camden County, the Sunrise Beach and Gravois Mills areas on Northern Camden County, the Macks Creek area of Western Camden County, and the Stoutland area in Southeastern Camden County. 

CCSO provides School Resource Officers for the Macks Creek School, the Stoutland School, and the Camdenton RIII School District at Hurricane Deck Elementary and Osage Beach Elementary.

  • RESPECT - Respect for the dignity of all people.
    We treat every person with dignity, courtesy, and professionalism, regardless of circumstance.

  • INTEGRITY - Integrity to do right and fight wrong.
    We hold ourselves to the highest standards of honesty, accountability, and ethical conduct. We do what is right, even when doing so is difficult.

  • WISDOM - Wisdom to apply common sense to our dealings with those we serve.
    We use sound judgment, experience, training, and common sense when making decisions and interacting with the community.

  • FAIRNESS - Fairness for everyone.
    We strive to treat every person impartially, consistently, and without prejudice, applying the law fairly and equitably.

  • COURAGE - Courage to stand against those things that weaken our community, our state, and our country.
    We have the courage to confront wrongdoing, protect those who cannot protect themselves, and stand firmly for the safety, security, and well-being of our community.

These values serve as the foundation for the Camden County Sheriff's Office and guide our actions, decisions, and interactions with the people we are entrusted to serve.
