It's another Behind the Badge Friday! This week, we're talking about drones and how they can be used to support our department!
The MPD used grant funds to purchase a drone! Several officers are trained to use the drone.
- Surveillance: Drones monitor large areas from above during public events, protests, or parades.
- Search and Rescue Operations: Drones can quickly cover large areas to locate missing persons, especially in hard-to-reach or dangerous locations!
- Crime Scene Investigation: Drones can capture aerial footage of crime scenes, which can aid in understanding what happened, mapping the scene, and collecting evidence without disturbing the site.
Join us for an unforgettable evening of fine spirits, exquisite wines, and gourmet dining at our exclusive Bourbon and Wine Tasting Event at Tanglewood Greens.

We are well underway with sponsors signing up to help with our Christmas for Kids program!!! We added over 100 new kids yesterday! If you are interested in sponsoring please sign up HERE and share so others can help make Christmas magical for foster and kinship kids in our community this year!!
***If you chose to mail gifts directly to the closet please include a gift receipt with the child ID number and send us a message to let us know where the order is from and what was in it. That helps keep everything straight on our end and we want to ensure the gifts you chose make it to the right child.
If you are a group that is looking to sponsor more than 2 children please send us a message and we can assist with the sign up.
Most importantly thank you for your support!
