CPD has summer plans and you’re invited.

Hey, Cola – We’re now in the swing of the #famouslyhot summer season, and during this time of year, the Columbia Police Department kicks off a bunch of initiatives + programs to build + strengthen our community partnerships. I hope you’ll join us at one of the following events:

🌯 Food Truck Fridays / Annual, bi-monthly series where you can meet + chat with local police officers over some grub from local food trucks at CPD Headquarters (1 Justice Sq.) on July 7 + 21 and August 4.

🔥 Fan the Heat / Kicked off this year on June 1, this annual program has delivered 6,000+ fans and air conditioners during summer to elderly citizens since its inception in June of 1995. You can donate fans, AC units + monetary funds through August 30 – see ColumbiaPD.net for drop-off locations, or drop off donations at Fireflies games and receive $1 off your ticket. ⚾️

Wishing everyone a safe summer in the city,

CPD signature

-William “Skip” Holbrook, Chief of Police
