We want to give a huge THANK YOU to Faith Flowers for their incredibly generous donation of beautiful flowers for our officers to deliver to our local banking partners a couple weeks ago.

Officer Brackett and Officer People had the pleasure of handing out flowers to the wonderful employees at Century Next, Timberline, and Commercial Capital to brighten their day and show our appreciation for all they do in our community.

From all of us at the department, thank you for helping us serve, connect, and care for our community. 💙👮‍♀️🌸
