I'm volunteering at the parade through the police department. See y'all there!

@Magnolia832 : Are you perhaps in the CPAA program?
I volunteered before pandemic happened, - joined CPAA in 2013.
Thank you for helping out! Have a fun time at the parade!

@Txtoast : Yes I am! Hello colleague, it's fun isn't it?

@Magnolia832 : Have you done any ride-alongs with PPD?
It's an opening experience.
It was fun and safe too.

@Txtoast : Sadly, I
Missed that part when was in class due to conflicts and travels I wonder if I can still do
It?

@Magnolia832 : It's a request you make to go on ride-alongs, I did so a year after class graduation.
At that time a member could get on a list to be called for activities.
Things may have changed since then.

Wish we could go, but I have to work!
