PAL Basketball Championships
On June 10, our PAL basketball teams had their championship games. The games started with the youngest players at 8:30 a.m. at the East Valley Community Center. Mayor Dane White and Councilmember Christian Garcia came out to cheer on the players! We thank them and the community for all their support. The youth that participate truly benefit from the program in so many ways.
Recruiting
This past week, a few of our officers headed over to Camp Pendleton for a recruiting event. The officers met with a number of members of our armed forces and spoke to them about the benefits of working for the City of Escondido and the rewards of law enforcement. The event was open to the military members and their families. The officers really enjoyed meeting everyone and sharing their experiences.
