El Segundo Police Officers' Association

The El Segundo Police Department Police Officers Association (ESPOA) was established in 1949 to represent sworn members of the El Segundo Police Department

The El Segundo Police Department Police Officers' Association was established in 1949 to represent sworn members of the El Segundo Police Department. The City of El Segundo has a population of approximately 20,000 residents and during the daytime rises to approximately 100,000 because of the influx of workers who work in our wonderful city.

ndo POA is active in our community by supporting many charities and public awareness events. From donating funds to our schools, athletic organizations and the El Segundo Teen Center, the ESPOA strives to assist in any way we can. We are proud of the service we provide and the leadership role law enforcement serves in our community. We strive daily to provide a safe and secure community while treating all others with dignity and respect. A Board of Directors consisting of the President, Vice President, Treasurer, Secretary and three board members, governs the El Segundo POA. Its members elect the Board every year.

Happy 87th birthday to the United States Coast Guard Auxiliary.

Established on June 23, 1939, originally as the Coast Guard Reserve before being renamed the Auxiliary in 1941, this volunteer arm of the U.S. Coast Guard has spent nearly nine decades supporting boating safety, search and rescue, environmental protection, and homeland security across America's waterways.

Today, the Auxiliary has roughly 21,000 volunteer members across the country, contributing more than 2 million hours of service every year. They are not paid. They serve because they believe in the mission. That kind of commitment looks familiar to anyone in this association.
Your service matters.

Share this post in honor of the volunteers who keep our waterways safe.

Happy Father's Day to every dad in our community, especially the ones who do this job.

This profession does not slow down for holidays. Father's Day is no exception. Right now, members of our association are working shifts, missing barbecues, and putting safety calls ahead of family time. They do it because that is what the work requires. And they do it without complaint because someone in their life taught them what it means to show up.

According to the U.S. Census, there are roughly 70 million fathers across the United States. Today is for every one of them. But especially the ones who chose a profession that asks more of their families than most ever realize.

To the dads working a shift today, thank you. To the families waiting for them at home, we see you too.

Tag a father in your life who deserves recognition today.

Six months into 2026, and we want to thank the community that has stood with us this year.

The work this association does is only possible because of the people who believe in it. Members. Families. Friends of the association. Every single person who supports the mission plays a part in what we are able to do, even when the work is quiet and behind the scenes.

We are not at the finish line. The need does not pause at the halfway mark, and neither do we.

Tag someone who has supported this association in any way this year. They should know it has not gone unnoticed.

82 years ago today, more than 156,000 Allied troops crossed the English Channel and stormed five beaches along the coast of Normandy, France. By the end of June 6, 1944, over 4,400 of them had given their lives. The largest amphibious invasion in human history changed the trajectory of World War II and, with it, the world.

Many members of this association are veterans. Many have parents and grandparents who served. The legacy of the men who landed at Normandy lives in the people who wear a uniform today, regardless of which one it is.

Today, this association honors them. Their courage was the cost of the freedoms we still defend every shift.

Share this post in honor of the men who gave everything on June 6, 1944.

Today is Memorial Day. Not a long weekend. Not a sale. A day set aside to remember the men and women who gave everything.

The roots of this holiday go back to May 1868, when General John A. Logan issued a proclamation designating May 30 as a day to decorate the graves of those who died in the Civil War. What began as flowers placed on graves eventually grew into a national observance honoring every American service member lost in every conflict this country has ever fought. More than 1.3 million Americans have died in military service throughout the nation's history.

Our members are working today, as they do on every holiday, keeping this community safe while families gather to remember. We do not take that lightly on any day, but especially not this one.

Share this post to make sure the original meaning of this day reaches your entire network.

Today is Peace Officer Memorial Day, and our association is pausing to honor it the right way.

On October 1, 1962, President John F. Kennedy signed Public Law 87-726, officially designating May 15 as the day this nation recognizes law enforcement personnel killed or disabled in the line of duty. According to the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund, an average of 150 to 160 law enforcement professionals are killed in the line of duty every year in the United States.

In observance of this day, we are running a fundraising drive. Financial stability for surviving families is not a bonus. It is a responsibility we take seriously.

Some losses are too large to fully comprehend. Today is Children of Fallen Patriots Day, and it asks us to sit with one of those losses for a moment.

An estimated 25,000 children have lost a parent in military service over the last 35 years. May 13 was selected as the observance date because it marks the establishment of Arlington National Cemetery in 1864, a permanent reminder of what military service can cost. The Children of Fallen Patriots Foundation has awarded over 82 million dollars in scholarships to more than 4,000 of these children since 2002.

Our association understands what it means to lose someone in the line of duty. We stand with these families today and encourage our community to do the same.

This week is National Police Week, and it carries a weight that words do not always do justice to.

National Police Week 2026 runs from May 11 through May 17, with memorial ceremonies, honor guard tributes, and survivor events taking place across Washington D.C. This year marks the 38th Annual Candlelight Vigil, where the names of every law enforcement professional killed in the line of duty in the past year are read aloud, one by one, in front of the families and colleagues they left behind.

For our association, this week is personal.

The members we represent know what it takes to put on the uniform every day. They know the names of the ones who did not come home. They carry that with them on every shift, and they show up anyway, because that is the job.

Share this post so every name remembered this week reaches one more person.

Happy Mother's Day to every mother in our community and in our ranks.

The holiday has been with us longer than most people realize. In 1908, Anna Jarvis held a memorial for her mother in Grafton, West Virginia, and the idea spread so quickly that by 1914 President Woodrow Wilson signed a proclamation making it a national holiday. Today, Mother's Day is one of the highest-grossing retail holidays in the United States, generating over 35 billion dollars in spending annually according to the National Retail Federation.

The mothers in our ranks show up for this community every shift. The mothers at home supporting our members carry just as much. Both deserve more than one day of recognition. But today, we make sure they get it.

Share this post and tag a mother who deserves to be recognized today.

Today is Military Spouse Appreciation Day, and it is one that deserves a lot more than a social media post.

Military spouses hold things together in ways that rarely get acknowledged. President Ronald Reagan established this observance in 1984 through Proclamation 5184, making it an official national recognition of the sacrifices made by the spouses of military personnel. At the time of signing, Reagan called military spouses "the unsung heroes of the armed forces."

Several members of this association serve in the reserve components, and the spouses supporting them here at home are part of what makes that dual service possible. They do not wear a uniform, but they serve just the same.

Share this post to make sure every military spouse in your network feels recognized today.
