SPD: early planning is the key to a good event

Sheridan Police Department Chief Travis Koltiska and Captain Tom Ringley recently spoke on what makes a good event and the actions that are needed to be taken to organize an event in Sheridan. 

Koltiska told listeners of Sheridan Media’s Public Pulse program to get started as early as possible. According to Koltiska, although mother nature didn’t cooperate and the event had to be canceled, conversations revolving around Sheridan County Travel and Tourism’s skijoring event started in October. 

According to Ringley, events within the City of Sheridan have multiple benefits, such as helping the efforts of the city to support economic development. And it is the duty of the SPD to make sure events are safe for patrons to enjoy as well as to ensure all laws are followed, in particular alcohol laws.

If residents are planning an event, the first place to start, according to Koltiska, is customer service in Sheridan City Hall.
