The Annual Dinner Dance celebrating St.<br />

Patrick’s Day breaks attendance records for<br />

the second year in a row. (below) The DSA<br />

returned to the Vista Wave Waterpark for a<br />

family-friendly summer event.<br />

In April, new Store Manager Ken Docken took the helm <strong>of</strong> the<br />

DSA Store. He worked to expand the uniform and gear range. If<br />

you haven’t been to the DSA Store this year, you should stop by<br />

The DSA also expanded its education program with the Union<br />

Institute University and National University, <strong>of</strong>fering classes at<br />

Det. Ali Perez and Sgt. Craig Johnson<br />

were wounded in a gun battle. While<br />

Craig was released from the hospital<br />

quickly, Ali Perez underwent several<br />

surgeries and days in the hospital.<br />

Members <strong>of</strong> our department and the<br />

public banded together to raise funds<br />

for Ali and his family.<br />

The DSA supported several<br />

fundraisers organized by deputies.<br />

After Ali’s condition stabilized, the<br />
