The kids from Bright Beginnings preschool toured City Hall and the Oakley Police Department this morning. After the kids heard a bit about the history of Oakley and how the city operates from City Manager Bryan Montgomery, Police Chief Eric Christensen talked about how the OPD keeps everyone safe.
The biggest hit of the tour was when Officer Palmer showed the kids an Oakley police car. They loved the flashing lights, but thought the siren was a bit loud! The kids all took turns saying something over the loudspeaker.
The City of Oakley offers free tours of City Hall and the Police Department to schools and other youth groups. Tours are available on weekdays and to make a reservation, please email Nancy Marquez-Suarez at marquez@ci.oakley.ca.us.
