GREEN BAY (WLUK) — The Green Bay Police Department hosted a community soccer game Saturday.
They partnered with a Green Bay Hispanic community for the event.
Green Bay police officers and recruits from the NWTC police academy faced off against community members at Kennedy Park for a friendly scrimmage.
Lt. Steve Mahoney of the Green Bay Police Department. tells FOX 11 it’s an important event so they can understand those in the community whom they serve.
“We organized this as a good community outreach event so people could see us as not always the police officer, that we’re out there having fun with them as well.”
Police says events like the soccer match are all part of the community outreach they hope to continue.
