The Seattle Police North Precinct Picnic will be held tomorrow at the North Precinct (10049 College Way North) from 1-4 pm, which serves Laurelhurst and other northeast neighborhoods.
The event is sponsored by SPD and the Seattle Police Foundation and is an opportunity to meet officers from the precinct, the SWAT team, and the Arson Bomb Squad (ABS).
The picnic will have a variety of activities including storytime, music, kids activities, and a chance to see various specialty units, SWAT and ABS vehicles and equipment.
The information says:
The annual picnics held at precincts throughout Seattle is a project designed to facilitate positive community and police interactions across the city. Picnics in the Precincts provide an opportunity for each precinct's surrounding neighborhoods to come together and enjoy an afternoon of celebration with the officers that protect their families and businesses. Businesses financially support the event through donations and community groups assist in the planning and execution of each picnic.
The first Picnic at the Precinct was held in September 2004 at the East Precinct. Since then, the Picnic in the Precinct program has grown to include all five precincts. Thousands of Seattle residents enjoy food, music, and an opportunity to learn about and interact with many of the Department's units, including K-9, Mounted Patrol, Bomb Squad, and SWAT.
