The Homewood Police Department took home the win Friday night in the National Night Out Battle of the Badges softball game, defeating our friends over at the Fire Department. That's the second series win of the year for HPD over HFD!
A special congratulations to #14 Officer Teter who, before the game, stepped up to the plate and claimed the Home Run Derby title! 
Huge thanks to everyone who came out to support National Night Out. These events are what make our community strong - neighbors, first responders, and good times all around!

You may see a large and very visible police presence around the campus and inside OLS over the next week or so. This is training. The Homewood Police Department will be conducting active shooter response training on the campus of Our Lady of Sorrows School July 16 and 17 and July 20 through 24, from 9am to 3pm each day. This is part of HPD's annual training and will also include medical trauma treatment and first aid. We wanted to make sure you knew what was happening if you see the activity in the area.
