Space is limited so please register EARLY. Here is how!

The event will have four one-hour time slots with a maximum of 50 participants per hour. Participants must register in advance. Register here

Victoria Police Department Trading Cards: Bonus Material

Did you know that every Victoria police officer carries their own officer trading cards for kids? Yep! Another way to keep our Crossroads children engaged with those that have chosen to protect and serve our community. Here is an article about their trading cards.

Don't forget to ask the officers for their cards whenever you see them around town and certainly this Saturday too!
