Police Week continues and the Revelstoke RCMP’s community BBQ over lunch on Thursday was a success, said Staff Sgt. Kurt Grabinsky, show here burning burgers with Auxiliary Const. Aaron Volpatti. “Over $200 was raised to donate to the Revelstoke Women’s Shelter,” he said. “There were many youth and adults who thoroughly enjoyed looking at the police equipment and pressing the siren in the police cars.”
All week Grabinsky has been sending local news media descriptions of the files local officers are working on. Late Wednesday and early Thursday’s files consist of several violation tickets as well as attempts to locate 911 callers.
The public is reminded to drive with caution, and to always lock their vehicles. If they must keep valuables in their cars and trucks they should store them out of sight.
“The police will be out this weekend to work on several traffic projects as road safety and impaired driving are issues of concern,” he said.
