Last year, we hosted our first Trading Card Contest. Our winner was 9 year old, Adilany Cortez with her Police K-9 drawing. Yesterday, Adilany was presented with a frame containing her trading card, her original drawing and a Woodland PD patch. She also received a batch of her very own trading cards! We would like to thank all those who submitted drawings for the contest, the Woodland Law Enforcement Assistance Foundation WLEAF for sponsoring the trading cards and Blue Wing Art Gallery for donating the framed work. We will be having another trading card contest soon, so make sure to follow us on our Instagram (@WoodlandPolice).

On Saturday Woodland Police Department with Woodland, Joint Unified School District, and Child Protective Services completed our Fill the Trunk toy giveaway. It was a heartwarming experience. We would like to give a special shout out to Woodland Police Officers Association, Yolo County Sheriff's Department Deputy Association, A.R. Landscaping, Home Depot, Walmart, and Dutch Bros. Without these larger dollar amount cash donors we would not have been able to host the event the way that we did. (VLD) #WoodlandPD #InThisTogether2020 #HolidayJoy #FillTheTrunk

Make sure your headlights are on even after the sun is up. Not all auto sensing headlights will recognize diminished visibility due to fog. TR

Homeless Outreach Team On 12/18/20 at about 12:00 p.m. the Homeless Outreach Team assisted Home Depot with a broken-down motor home that was on their property. Notices had been posted on the vehicle informing the owners that it needed to be moved. Debris had begun to pile up around it. A woman was inside the motor home. The woman was struggling with both physical and mental health issues.
