Thank you, Cottage Grove Public Safety and Public Safety Board.

November is National Veterans and Military Families Month, and we’re proud to honor those who have served, and the families who stand beside them.

In 2024, the Cottage Grove Public Safety Board introduced the official Military Appreciation patch. Throughout November, you’ll see our officers wearing them as a proud tribute to our service members and their families.

Great night at the public safety open house in Cottage Grove, where we took a moment to present donations to the Police Foundation and Police Explorers. Both groups have been valued partners demonstrating a commitment to supporting veterans and military families.
