On Friday April 10th the Gresham Police Department parades through town to each of the businesses that participate in their "Adopt-a-Cop" program. The Village has adopted officers Ted and Martin and we are usually the first stop on the parade route. We began gathering on the front porch of our main building at 10AM and distributed signs, flags, and bubbles. By the time the Gresham Police drove through our campus we had doubled in number. The officers always stop, get out of their vehicles to speak with us, show us their vehicles and their K-9 and engage in a mutual appreciation exchange with the officers and residents both saying how much they value and appreciate each other. This year the GPD ended the parade at Main Street City Park where people can spend more time talking and getting photo opportunities.
