Officers give water to greenway users

For the fourth consecutive year, members of the Wake Forest Police Department are handing out bottles of iced water while patrolling Wake Forest greenways. Officers regularly patrol the trails in all-terrain vehicles purchased through a grant.

“Handing out bottles of water to local residents who are using our greenways is a great way for officers to interact with the public, while also providing a useful service, especially when it’s hot,” said Wake Forest Police Chief Jeff Leonard.

Any business, individual or family wishing to donate one or more cases of bottled water may drop them off at the Police Department Main Station at 225 South Taylor Street.
