Picnics in the Precincts are fun activities we hold every year that provide an opportunity for the business and residential communities in each of Seattle’s five precincts to come together and enjoy a day of celebration with their local police. They are great opportunities for people to be introduced to the department in a relaxed, non-law enforcement environment, meet their local police officers, enjoy free food, entertainment and raffle prizes, and get information on how to get involved in preventing crime in their community. We also are excited for everyone to meet our new Police Chief, Kathleen O’Toole!

The Picnics include booths hosted by groups and agencies that engage in crime prevention activities, and/or provide services in the community. Please contact us at the email address or number above to reserve a booth now. On behalf of the Seattle Police Foundation and the Seattle Police Department we look forward to another fun and safe summer. Together, we can continue to promote a safe and vibrant community.
