Thanksgiving is a time to join with family and friends and give thanks for the blessings and freedoms that we enjoy every day. We are thankful for our supportive community and so appreciative of the opportunity serve you as your police department.

The strength of our city comes from you, our residents. We are thankful that we have active and caring citizens who are involved in their community. We are also thankful for our officers, who work hard every day to provide you with superior services and amenities.

As you celebrate Thanksgiving, please remember to reach out to those in our community who are less fortunate. That giving spirit helps make our community a special place to live.

The men and women of the Redwood City Police Department wish you and your family a safe and happy Thanksgiving.

With safety in mind we offer these simple traveling tips for the busy holiday weekend. Be safe and enjoy.

Don’t post news that you’re out of town, particularly not online on social networks which are open to the public.

Lower the volume on your telephone ringer; no need to imply you’re away with the chiming of repeated rings.

Leave your keys and responsibilities with a trusted neighbor or friend; have them pick up mail and deliveries, and occasionally move your parked car around. Don’t hide your keys outside; burglars will enjoy hunting for them.

Secure doors and windows; eliminate ladders or house-hugging tree limbs to make sure there’s no easy access to upstairs windows.

Operate lights with a timer so you’ve always got something lit at night.
