Monthly Message from Colonel J. Smith

I will be returning this weekend and am very much looking forward to reconnecting with everyone at the upcoming Admin and Coffee event! 

Professionalism needs to be a priority for all members 

• Ensure you are not breaking any traffic laws, this won't be tolerated. DRIVE WITH COMMON SENSE

• Ensure you are not responding to municipal calls.

Pursuits need to be BETTER.

• Ensure your reason for pursuing is valid.

• Provide all important information over radio.

• TVI's, ensure that you are preforming a safe and proper intervention

Sergeant Selection Process 

• The process is open to all Senior Troopers (must be the rank for 30 days prior)

Updates and Upcoming
