The
Auxiliary Unit is comprised of commissioned police officers who participate
in a variety of functions for the City of Republic. This division works
at the Fall Festival, Pumpkin Daze, Have a Blast, the Republic Christmas
Parade, all high school football and basketball games as well as homecoming
dances, high school graduation, etc. This division has also assisted
in the under-age drinking grant.
The
Auxiliary Unit is also involved in the Special Olympics heading up security
for the event. Many of the officers assisted tornado victims in the
past storms by patrolling towns and cleaning up debris.
Many of these officers have
full-time jobs outside the law enforcement career field and work part-time
to provide our community with additional help.
