RETIREES REMEMBER THE OLD DAYS
It is a time to get together, reminisce, and catch up on the latest. Once a month (every third Wednesday of the month) the Midland Police Department hosts a retirees breakfast for those who used to spend their days protecting the citizens of Midland. The next retiree breakfast will take place on Wednesday, September 20, 2006, at 10:00 a.m. in the third floor conference room at the MPD.
There are approximately 110 retirees who are invited every month. They include retirees from different law enforcement agencies. Some attend regularly while some attend periodically. Anywhere from 15 to 25 attend each month.
The retirees breakfast has been going strong for 13 years. It provides an opportunity to meet, socialize, and keep connected to the police family. The retirees also meet once a week at different places. Some play golf or do other activities together. They also have an annual reunion with a BBQ at their annual firearms qualification each fall.
