The work of a police officer involves many aspects.  Building and maintaining police/community relations is vital, and the Mounted Patrol is an integral component of Community Policing.  These renovated stables and workspaces will serve as a private, calm, and comfortable setting for our horses and where Miami-Dade Police Department (MDPD), Mounted Patrol police officers can house, groom, and train their equine partners.  Miami-Dade County Parks, Recreation and Open Spaces, the Police Officer Assistance Trust (POAT) and the MDPD are thankful for the philanthropic gesture extended by the Milton Family Foundation and their coordination with local community partners to make this possible. We are one community and together we can all accomplish more.

The Honorable Miami-Dade County Mayor Daniella Levine-Cava and Miami-Dade County Board of County Commissioners Vice Chairman Anthony Rodriguez are anticipated to attend the unveiling.
