This special event attended by officers, dispatchers, and their families will honor bravery and dedication, and recognize life-saving actions, acts of valor, and meritorious conduct.

This awards ceremony has been a long-time goal of Chief Vernon Knuckles, and in his absence due to his National Guard deployment, acting Chief Andy Brock will preside over the honors. The awards celebrate the extraordinary efforts of the Cortez Police Department officers and dispatchers during the challenging and dangerous events of 2023 and 2024.
