COPPs & RCMP Xmas Banquet

The first Xmas Banquet of the year was excellent this evening! Way back in September the crew at COPPs invited my family and I to their Xmas Banquet with the RCMP. Some of the things I learned this evening:
  • One of the constables is being transferred to a post almost an hour south of Swift Current.
  • The constable in question will always have a soft spot for Kindersley. Why do you ask?
    • He is marrying a local girl, Laura.
    • Congratulations Sean and Laura!
  • Another constable moved from Campbell River to here and loves the prairie sky.
On a different note COPPs shared this information:
  • they drive around all night looking for trouble and claim they stay our of trouble
  • they have been mooned
  • they like locking doors that have been left unlocked or open
  • they once came across a group of teenagers at Wal Mart trying to steal a bunch of shopping carts
    • my question: what were they going to do with the shopping carts?
    • is there a black market for shopping carts?
  • they have given some revellers rides home in bad weather
    • the case in question is the revellers were walking home in Hawaiian shirts and shorts in -30 weather
      • these guys are not helping Darwin
  • they have helped spot stolen cars
  • 90% of the time is boredom hanging with the guys
  • 5% is exciting
  • 5% is thrilling
Does this sound like a good time to you? If it does, then why don't you volunteer?. All you have to do is go the RCMP barracks and complete an application form.
