In honor of National Law Enforcement Appreciation Day, the more than 90 Courthouse Plaza trees that are decorated with lights for the holidays will be switched to blue for three nights starting Thursday night.
A short program will be presented by local agencies at 5:30pm on the Northside steps of the Courthouse. Yavapai County Sheriff David Rhodes and other law enforcement leaders are all slated to speak. The event is outside and free to attend.
Matt Brassard, Board President with the Prescott Downtown Partnership, said, “This will be the fourth year we’ve the lights have turned blue, and we’re proud to honor our area law enforcement this way. We hope people will take time to come out and show their support to those who protect us every day. We’re grateful to our local leaders who will be there to say a few words about their own organizations. It’s just a small way for us to show our gratitude.”
