🚔🎃💙 Community Connections That Matter 💙🎃🚔

We are grateful for the many community connections and the unwavering support our Public Safety Department provides to residents and non-residents throughout the Metro Detroit area.

Yesterday evening, our two Community Resource Officers, alongside the Michigan State Police, were proud to hand out treats at the Norup International School Annual Trunk or Treat. The event was filled with smiles, laughter, music, and excitement as children sang, danced, and enjoyed a truly spook-tacular evening.👻👻

Opportunities like these strengthen relationships, build trust, and create lasting memories for our youth and families. Thank you to everyone who participated and helped make the event such a success.

A special thank you to Principal Paul Yowchuang, the Norup staff, volunteers, and families for hosting such a wonderful event, our Community Resource Officers Dean and Arbenowske, our public safety partners for their continued dedication and commitment to serving the community both on and off duty.

Thank you for all you do! 💙🎃🚔
