Officers and support staff will be recognized for their service to the community at the eighth annual awards banquet set for Thursday, Nov. 14, and hosted by Bellefontaine Police Department.
The event is occasion to recognize the work of police officers, dispatchers and all who support the tireless work of local law enforcement.
Keynote speaker for the event is Monica Moll, Director of Public Safety at the Ohio State University.

She works daily with her team to incorporate best practices in college campus safety.
“With some of the nation’s top educational opportunities and sports teams, she will discuss her duties while applauding the work of the Bellefontaine Police Department in the community they serve.”
