On Patrol SuYenn Smith Happy Holidays! to the commu nity of Warm Springs, my name is SuYenn Smith. I am 24-years-old and an enrolled member of the Confeder ated Tribes of Warm Springs. I am of Wasco, Yakama, KlamathModoc, and Tualip desent. My parents are Alvis & Sissy (Wilson) Smith Jr. of Warm Springs. My grandparents are Alvis Smith Sr., and the late Ramona Wilson ofSprague River, Ore. I have one brother, Alvis Smith III and one sister Mona (Smith) Strong. I have a son, Martin Smith-Mennealy, a third grader at the Warm Springs Elemen- . tary School. I have been employed with the Warm Springs Police Department since October of 1998 with a recent , transfer into the Acting Support Ser vices Supervisor. I have worked in several divisions within the depart ment, which includes: Telecommu nications, Police Administration, and ' the Investigations Division as part of the Support Staff. I have enjoyed working with the Branch for the past two years and appreciate the services that they provide to our community as a whole. I have had the pleasure , in working with a new upper man agement staff and now understand the work and hours put into developing J -4 - SuYenn Smith a safer environment for not only the community members but the visitors to our area as well. My goal, as the Acting Support Services Supervisor, include the de velopment of our department into a more community orientated office, where the client andor visitor feels that they are getting the best services that our department can provide them with. I would like to say thank you to the community and hope you have a safe and happy holiday. On Patrol With the Christmas Holiday just around the corner, the police depart ment would like to remind everyone not to drink and drive. The life you save could be your own or a loved one. While traveling, please make sure all seat belts are fastened and make sure you watch out for the other guy. Be careful on all slick roads es pecially when making a sudden stop. Also while traveling, carry tire chains, blankets, a shovel, snacks, and a flash light. Community Policing The Warm Springs Community Oriented Policing Services would like to remind Christmas shoppers to cover up the things they buy, make sure your vehicle is locked and un der a well lighted area before enter ing another store. When your gifts are safe at home and under the Christmas tree, make sure your windows and doors are locked if you plan to take a quick trip to the store or just to visit. Have your neighbor's keep an eye on your house, or keep your mean dog in doors until you return. Remember that there are those GRINCH types out there who do their shopping by breaking into homes. Holidays are special, remember to spend time with members of the family, say something nice to every one you meet in passing. The joy you spread in doing so goes a long way. In these times of hurry here, hurry there, rush, rush, we often forget to say a simple thank you or even give an "Old Fashioned Christmas Greet: ing". Remember those people who are gone away in the service or in school, or in some other manner are not here with you and think of them for a moment as you are busy getting things done. Years ago our commu nity used to re al' work to get everyone to gether for a "Community Tree". Every one came, had fun, shared, gave, laughed, ate a little, then went on home with the Christ mas spirit heavy in mind. Make the most of the season everyone, have a very Merry Christmas to each ana every one of you. The First Time Ever the Community Policing Department will hold a toy drive for needy families. This will be an annual event. For more information contact, Stoney Miller, Bob Medina, or Chris Elliott at 553-2283
