Today, members of the Westport Police Department and Westport Fire Department, Massachusetts were proud to host our annual Police and Fire Cookout at Westport Elementary School.

This event is one of our favorite traditions, providing an opportunity for first responders to connect with students in a fun and relaxed setting outside of emergencies. Officers and firefighters enjoyed sharing lunch, conversations, and plenty of smiles with the children and school staff.

Building positive relationships with our community starts at a young age, and events like this help foster trust, friendship, and open communication between our public safety personnel and the families we serve.

Thank you to Westport Elementary School for welcoming us and helping make this year's cookout another great success. We look forward to continuing this tradition for years to come!

🍋☀️ Community Policing, One Cup at a Time! ☀️🍋

On this hot and sunny day, several Westport Police officers had the opportunity to stop by a local lemonade stand to cool off with a refreshing cup of lemonade and spend some time chatting with the young entrepreneurs behind the operation.

These interactions may seem simple, but they are an important part of community policing. Building positive relationships with our residents, especially our youngest community members, helps foster trust, open communication and a stronger connection between the police department and the people we serve.

We would like to thank the kids for their hospitality, hard work and delicious lemonade. Their stand was a welcome stop on a warm afternoon, and we enjoyed learning about their business while sharing some laughs along the way.

If you're out and about this summer, keep an eye out for these young business owners, as they plan to be out regularly selling lemonade. Be sure to stop by White Oak Run, say hello, and support their efforts!

Westport is a special community because of moments like these. We are proud to serve such a wonderful town.
