Los Angeles: The Los Angeles Police Department’s 77^th Street Area Community Police Station will be hosting the 6^th Annual Officer Appreciation Day. This is the community’s way of showing the officers assigned in the 77^th Street Area as well as the California Highway Patrol, Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department, and the Los Angeles City Fire Department.

The community members will be decorating the station with blue ribbons and balloons to show support. A spectacular barbecue will be served to all officers and civilian employees.

This event has been a great morale booster to all officers throughout the last six years and a chance to the community members to meet with officers who protect and serve them day in and day out.
