Great Job Cpl. Cassell (K9 Boss), Cpl. Wimpey (K9 Duke), and Sgt. McFarlin! We love our K9's and we can't say enough what a great asset they are to our department and to the City of Pickens.

We are excited to announce the First Annual Hot Pursuit 5K run/walk and 1 mile Catch-A-Cop. It will be held, Saturday, April 22nd, 2023 at the Doodle Park in Pickens. The race will be ran on a Certified Course.

The 1 mile Catch-A-Cop will be open to kids ages 8th grade and under. These participants will attempt to "catch a cop" and collect flags on a course that goes from the Doodle Park to Bruce Field. After the conclusion of their race, they will get into police cars and ride back to the Doodle park in a procession of police cars.
