Chalmers Ford Supports the 2025 Bernalillo County Sheriff’s Ball

At Chalmers Ford, we believe that real value goes beyond great prices and quality vehicles. It's about supporting the people and programs that keep our communities strong. As part of our Chalmers Cares initiative, we proudly served as a Gold Sponsor of the 2025 Bernalillo County Sheriff's Ball. 

Honoring Service and Sacrifice in Bernalillo County 

The Bernalillo County Sheriff's Ball is an annual event hosted by the Sheriff and Command Staff to honor the brave deputies and civilian staff who serve our community. This year's event was particularly meaningful as proceeds from the event benefited The Ranches and Special Olympics New Mexico—two organizations that continue to make a lasting difference in the lives of New Mexicans. 

“The Sheriff's Ball is an opportunity to recognize the deputies and staff who put service above self every day,” said Mike Michnuk, Chalmers Ford Fleet Director. “We're honored to support their work and the causes that matter to them.” 

Building Community Through Shared Impact 

The evening itself reflected this spirit of community unity. From the red carpet to the final dance, the evening brought together law enforcement, local businesses, and community leaders for a night filled with dinner, awards, a silent auction, and fellowship. It was a powerful reminder of what it means to show up for one another. 

“Our team at Chalmers believes in showing up for the people who show up for our community,” said Andy Strebe, General Manager. “Sponsoring events like this reflects our values. We're proud to stand with the Bernalillo County Sheriff's Office.”
