The 2025 Sheriff Buford Pusser Festival will honor Arizona Pinal County’s Sheriff Mark Lamb. Sheriff Lamb was elected as the 24th Sheriff of Pinal County on January 1st, 2017, until Dec. 31, 2024. Sheriff Lamb oversaw a county the size of Connecticut and managed more than 600 employees within the Sheriff’s Office and a budget of over $60 Million.

As a constitutional conservative, Sheriff Lamb is a strong supporter of our 2nd Amendment rights and the enforcement of all our laws, including fighting human and drug trafficking at our southern border. Sheriff Lamb is determined to protect the rights and freedoms of the people whom he serves. We are proud to honor Sheriff Lamb and his service to our country.
