Surprise! Yes, the person behind the screen actually exists in full high definition!

After 20 years in uniform and 13 of those policing your feeds, I’ve officially decided it's time to log off, step out from behind the keyboard, and book my next chapter: Retirement!

Serving the Prince George Police Department has been an incredible honor, but wearing the Public Information Officer hat has been an absolute blast. Over the last 13 years, this page has become so much more than a place for standard press releases. It became our digital community living room.

I’ve had the time of my life being your chief content creator, whether that meant bundling up to bring you live, freezing-cold updates on snow patrol, turning everyday safety tips into shareable viral moments, crafting quick-witted replies, or sneaking just enough puns into the captions to keep you scrolling. Finding creative ways to bridge the gap between our department and our community, making you smile while keeping you informed, has been one of the most rewarding parts of my career.

Turns out, after two decades on the force and endless hours behind the keyboard, I'm finally ready to trade status updates, analytics, and dispatch alerts for exciting new horizons.
Don't worry, the page is being left in fantastic hands! The incoming team is fully geared up, creative juices flowing, and ready to keep bringing you top-tier content and important updates (no caption required).

Thank you, Prince George, for every like, share, laugh, and wholesome comment over the years. Your support made creating this content a joy every single day. It has been a true privilege to serve this community, both on the road and online!

Doctor Officer Grochmal, signing off, stepping away from the keys, and officially 10-42!

Happy Monday, PG!

School is officially back in session. We have a few safety tips for everyone to have a safe school year!

*Speed limits save lives.
Consider road, weather, and traffic conditions every time you drive. Slow down when needed, obey posted limits, and pay extra attention in school zones. Plan ahead so you can arrive safely... not rushed.

*Your attention belongs on the road.
Set your navigation before driving, turn on “Do Not Disturb,” and keep your phone out of reach until you arrive. Passengers: speak up if a driver is distracted. Stay alert for pedestrians, bicyclists, school buses, crossing guards, and other drivers.

*Drivers: Be alert. Be patient. Yield.
Watch carefully for pedestrians, especially at night and near crosswalks. Always yield, never pass a vehicle stopped at a crosswalk, and minimize blind spots and distractions. Everyone deserves to get home safely.

*Pedestrian safety starts before you step off the curb.
Follow signs and signals, cross only at designated crosswalks, and make eye contact with drivers before crossing. Children under 10 should never cross the street alone. A few extra seconds can make all the difference.
