Many citizens volunteer for a variety of reasons, but share one<br />

common goal — adding their effort to the work of others to<br />

make everyone’s lives better. Volunteering for Greenwood Village<br />

can be a rewarding experience especially when you see the<br />

benefits happening right in your own community. Whether it’s<br />

providing input on a new development in the neighborhood,<br />

recommending enhancements to a new park or trail, assisting a<br />

victim of a crime, teaching an art class to a group of youth, or<br />

planting crops at the Silo Park Garden for food that will go to a<br />

local food shelter, volunteers get the first hand in shaping a<br />

community’s future.<br />

The Village has an array of volunteers across City Hall who<br />

dedicate their time to serve their local government and the many<br />

services and programs the Village offers. Greenwood Village will<br />

continue to offer an outstanding quality of life through the<br />

continued involvement of our volunteers.<br />

Thanks again to all the volunteers for your contributions to help<br />

make Greenwood Village what it is today! <strong>GV</strong><br />

CITIZENS’ POLICE ACADEMY<br />

The Greenwood Village Citizens’ Police Academy’s purpose is<br />

to provide a forum whereby participants can develop a basic<br />

understanding of how the Police Department functions. It will<br />

also provide opportunities for ongoing communication between<br />

members of the community and the Police Department.<br />

The Citizens’ Police Academy occurs annually and meets<br />

Thursday nights from 6 to 9 p.m., and two optional Saturdays<br />

from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Greenwood Village City Hall<br />

located at 6060 South Quebec Street.<br />

The next Greenwood Village Citizens’ Police Academy will<br />

begin on Thursday, February 22, 20<strong>18</strong>, and continue through<br />

Thursday, May 10, 20<strong>18</strong>. The two Saturday sessions are April<br />

7, 20<strong>18</strong>, and May 5, 20<strong>18</strong>. Citizens’ Academy application forms<br />

are available at the Police Department 6060 South Quebec<br />

Street. The Academy Coordinator will contact you to confirm<br />

your selection to participate.<br />

The Academy is free of charge and open to anyone, not just<br />

residents of Greenwood Village. For more information, contact<br />

Officer Rodney Valenzuela at 303-486-8251 or by email at<br />
