Virtual Activities

“One of the main joys of public safety work is the friendly interactions we get to have with our community every day. Unfortunately, due to the COVID-19 outbreak, our regular visits, tours, and activities with students and children have all been suspended. So, to try to support all the parents navigating virtual learning at home and dealing with closed daycares, we’re coming up with ways Officers and Firefighters can engage with kids online.

Stay tuned, we’re working on some videos that we will share here and on our Police and Public Safety social media accounts.

Have ideas for videos and activities you would like to see? Please let us know! Send us a message on Facebook, Twitter or email rpd@redmond.gov with your suggestions!”
