🐾 Happy National K9 Day! 🐾

Today, we recognize and celebrate the incredible K9s who serve alongside law enforcement officers every day. These dedicated partners use their strength, intelligence, and instincts to help keep our communities safe.

From tracking and searches to assisting their handlers in the field, K9s are more than partners — they’re trusted members of the law enforcement family. 🐕‍🦺💙

Today, we thank all the K9s and their handlers for their hard work, loyalty, courage, and service.

🐾 We appreciate you and all that you do!

🪨🔎 KENTON ROCK HUNT – CAN YOU SOLVE THE CLUE? 🔎🪨

Summer’s long days are slipping away,
And morning bells will soon have their say.
New books and backpacks wait by the door,
As learning returns once more.

But seek not the bell that’s yet to ring,
Nor where young voices start to sing.
Instead, find where the lessons have passed,
A chapter now written somewhere in the past.

Though its purpose changed, its walls remain,
Holding echoes without a name.
Look where yesterday once opened its doors—
The hidden stone waits near times before. 🪨👀

Think you’ve found it? Here’s what to do:

📸 Take a photo of the rock exactly where you found it.
👮 Bring the rock and your photo to the Kenton Police Department.
🍦 Turn it in to receive your Yankee Dairy Queen reward token!

Please remember to respect the area while searching and leave everything else as you found it.

Good luck, hunters! Happy hunting! 🪨🔎

⚠️ SCAM ALERT – KENTON AREA ⚠️

The Kenton Police Department has received multiple reports of scam calls from individuals claiming to be members of the Kenton Police Department (KPD) or Hardin County Sheriff’s Office (HCSO).

Scammers are telling people they have warrants or other legal issues and then demanding money. In some cases, they are leaving a callback number that is not even a local area code.

🚨 Please remember: LAW ENFORCEMENT WILL NEVER CALL YOU AND DEMAND MONEY OVER THE PHONE TO CLEAR A WARRANT OR TO AVOID ARREST!

If you receive a suspicious call:
• Do not send money or provide financial information.
• Do not give out personal information.
• Hang up and independently contact the agency using an official phone number if you have questions.
• If you believe you have been the victim of a scam, report it to law enforcement.

Please share this post with family and friends—especially those who may be more vulnerable to these types of scams.

When in doubt, hang up.

🪨 THE ROCK IS HIDDEN AGAIN! 🪨

Summer is fading, the school year draws near,
Soon come backpacks, new faces, and cheer.
But before all the footsteps return to the halls,
Seek where the sunlight quietly falls.
Look for a place where the rows stand in line,
Catching the daylight and giving back shine.
Not quite a field, though it stretches out wide,
And something important is hidden nearby.
Where children will gather when summer is through,
A little painted secret is waiting for you. ☀️

🔎 FOUND IT? HERE'S WHAT TO DO:
📸 Take a photo of the rock where you found it.
👮 Bring the rock and your photo to the Kenton Police Department.
🎟️ Turn it in to receive your Yankee Dairy Queen reward token! 🍦
Good luck, hunters! And remember… the best find might be hiding in plain sight. 👀
