In support, the Citizen Support Group for the Fort Worth Police Mounted Patrol has reportedly donated $350,000 to the Fort Worth Police Department (FWPD), earmarked for constructing a covered horse walker arena. This news was shared on the FWPD's official social media channels.
The Facebook post from the Fort Worth Police Department highlighted the presentation by Chief Noakes of a special encased memento to the Citizen Support Group, symbolizing the importance of the FWPD patch and badge, a token representing the department's acknowledgment of the board's ongoing commitment and generosity, it's clear the department values these civic relationships and the financial lifeblood they provide for its mounted units.
Details surrounding the donation's use remain succinct.
