THPD block party returns for its third year
TERRE HAUTE, Ind. (WTWO/WAWV) — A fun night in the community is right around the corner.
On May 31, the Terre Haute Police Department will be holding its third annual block party. The event will include food, rides, games, face painting, and more for the community to enjoy free of charge.
Lieutenant Justin Sears said this event is a great way for the department to build relationships in the community.
THPD recognizes local business for their support
'We are developing relationships with the kids, and we are developing relationships I may never see by the time I retire, cause we are starting at these ages. We want the Terre Haute Police Department to be a fun place. We want the kids to drive by with mom and dad and be like 'hey that's where we went and saw Foam Hommies, or we talked to the police, or we saw the K9 demo, that SWAT truck was there and they let us get in it. We want it to be a place they feel comfortable,' said Sears.
The event will be held at the Terre Haute Police Department
