Bike Patrol

Bike Patrol Officer CraftDuring the summer months, the Department deploys its Bike Patrol Program. Officers that are specially trained in the operation of a police bicycle take to the streets and patrol the Village.

The overall intent and strength of the program is the community relations aspect. The bike provides something of an "ice breaker" between the officer and children, and leads to productive conversation and bond building. The program is a great way to mentor and interact with children in the community.
