This Saturday, June 6th is the 8th Annual First Responder's Pancake Breakfast & Mimosa Bar! GRPD and Bracken Fire Department will be manning the griddles and serving up a yummy breakfast.

**8am to 11am, come on out**

The weather is looking...iffy, to be honest...so if you're wanting to donate, yet not possibly be caught in Mother Nature's ever-changing rain mood, we've got an option for you.

The QR code below enables you to donate directly to the Children's Advocacy Center of Comal County, Inc..

Don't get us wrong, we will love to see your Saturday morning bedhead hair and serve you pancakes, sausage, coffee (aka nectar of the Gods), OJ or mimosas - so don't skip the fun with us, but if you can't come by, then please use the code below to donate all the same.

The CACC is vital in our community to helping kids through the roughest times in their lives, and assisting them to feel safe and cared for. That's something no one can put a price on. ❤

This week has been filled with expressions of gratitude, care and kindness towards our officers. Thank you to everyone that has delivered goodies, lunches, dinners, cards and reminders that we are appreciated within our community. It means so much to us!

National Police Week is a solemn reminder of those who have stood before us to serve and protect, and have paid the ultimate price in doing so.

We honor those officers who are no longer with us, and we will never forget their sacrifice.

We are a family & a brotherhood - and we always will be.
