History

Overview
The City on the Circle" was founded in 1912 by George E. Sebring, a pottery manufacturer from Ohio. The City of Sebring was chartered by the State of Florida one year later and its police department began with the appointment of the city's first town marshal, Aaron Withers.

100 years and 18 town marshals and poilce chiefs later, the Sebring Police Department proudly serves a city of nearly 10,500 year-round residents. Our service population soars to over 40,000 people who come to enjoy our balmy winter weather.
