Join us for the Third Annual Post Falls Police Department K9 Golf Tournament fundraiser at Prairie Falls Golf Course in Post Falls on Friday, July 21, 2017. There will be a dinner and silent auction. All proceeds benefit our department’s two-team K9 unit. We are also seeking birdie and eagle hole sponsorships plus silent auction and raffle item donations.
For tournament players, check-in is at 11:00 a.m. and tee-off at 1:00 p.m. Dinner is for paid golf entrants only. Spectators are welcome to watch the tournament and participate in the silent auction. You do not need to be present to win.
The Post Falls Police K9 program was created in 2009 to provide professionally trained and highly-motivated K9 teams to respond to critical incidents and utilized for illegal drug interdiction. In addition, they provide a clear deterrent to resistive suspects with intent to assault, evade, or escape. Our K9 teams also assist other local law enforcement agencies upon their availability.
In 2011, K9 expanded to two multi-purpose police dog teams. Currently our K9 teams include Ofc. Frank Bowne and Police Service Dog (PSD) Duco and Ofc. Cody Robertson with PSD Andor.
Our K9 teams benefit the department and Post Falls citizens by being a force multiplier to detect hidden suspects. In some cases, the presence of a K9 team will convince suspects to surrender. They reduce the hours it takes patrol officers to search buildings, and their presence improves officer safety.
To register for the four-person scramble, download the flyer K9 Golf Tournament 2017 Flyer and application K9 Golf Tournament 2017 Application then mail or drop off the completed application at the police department with cash or check payment payable to the Post Falls Police Department.
