To help grow partnerships with members of Halton Region's diverse and growing community, the Halton Regional Police Service holds numerous special public events throughout the year. The events are designed to appeal to people of all ages and interests and to enhance understanding between the public and the police.

Opening ceremonies will begin at 12:30 p.m. sharp.

This year's theme is “Halton Regional Police Service: Helping Build Safer Communities”.
