On Friday night, October 28th, we had our second annual “Trunk or Treat” at the Riverside Division. It gets better every year. The scary crew below, all crime fighters, put on this event for kids in the area. A great time was had by all. We are sharing pictures from “Trunk or Treat” beginning on Page 3 in this issue of our newsletter. We return to regular programming this time next week. We could not have done this without the generous support of our corporate neighbors. Sponsors were CVS Drugs, Home Depot, Target Stores, Arby’s, Wal-Mart, Sam’s Club, J. C. Penney, Spirit Halloween, and Wendy’s.

Saying Goodbye to Corporal Witt

Corporal David D. Witt retired October 31, 2011 after 34 years of service to the citizens of Tulsa. His last years were spent as a dayshift patrol supervisor in Riverside Division. Dave is a lifelong baseball fan. You are likely to see him in the stands on the first base side of most Drillers’ games. We wish him well in retirement.
