Fun Event For Kids

No Dogs Allowed Signage

    Now Posted in Martin Park, No Dogs Allowed in City Parks

Oh "Deer"

This fawn was attempting to cross Green Bay Road by the Shell Gas Station in attempt to follow its mom and survived the heavy traffic.  Officer Crabb relocated the fawn to a wooded area to avoid attempting to cross the road again in peak traffic times.  No citations were issued, just a verbal warning for failing to yield and being inattentive. 

Officers Helped Register Bikes

Sturgeon Bay Police Officer Jennerjohn and Officer Deibele offered bike safety tips to a group of youth from the Bicycle Adventure Class held at Sunrise School.  The Officers helped the kids register their bikes before they ventured their way back to school.
