While the work continues, no one is permitted to enter the park area. Violators could be subject to citations for trespassing.
Reducing underage and dangerous drinking.

Do not let your Super Bowl Party celebrations impact the rest of your life. See the material below and via the link from our partners at drugfree.org.
Thank You Visit
Late last week we received some unexpected visitors at our station. The Gearhart family arrived with some wonderful hand drawn cards and a gift card for lunch for the officers. We are so blessed to work in such an amazing community. Barely a day goes by that residents and business owners don't reach to us to ask how we are doing? People we are interacting with in the community have been letting us know that they value our presence and service to the community.
