RPD will again host Thanksgiving Tuesday at Sylvan Park

The Redlands Police Department will join with community partners at Sylvan Park on Tuesday, Nov. 24, to provide Thanksgiving Tuesday, a heartwarming event that provides a free Thanksgiving meal to the community. This is the sixth year the department has organized the annual event.

Beginning at 11 a.m. RPD staff will serve a feast prepared by officers and civilian department staff using the Redlands Police Officers Association’s BBQ trailer. Cooks will begin early Tuesday morning smoking more than 20 turkeys to serve. In addition to 20-pound smoked turkeys, the meal will include fresh smashed potatoes, green beans, cranberry sauce, stuffing and gravy.

Thanks to Stater Bros Charities, this event is free for all who wish to participate in the festivities. Enjoy a warm cup of coffee or tea provided by Starbucks while mingling with other members of the community and RPD officers. For those with a sweet tooth, Toyota of Redlands will be serving up delicious pies. New Age Gaming will have their video game trailer for all the little ones to enjoy. 

Don’t miss out on this opportunity to celebrate Thanksgiving with your neighbors and the Redlands Police Department. Come share a turkey leg and create lasting memories!
