 Dear Parents,
The last thing any parent wants is a phone call from your local police asking you to come to our police station to pick up your child. Worst than that, would be a message telling you child has been harmed in some way. School will soon be out and the Blue Island Police Department would like to take the time to ask parents to get your children and your family involved in some positive fun activities. Enjoy your summer with your children or get them involved in the many events that are being offered in our community!
