Chief Travis Koltiska and Captain Tom Ringley of the Sheridan Police Department thanked the public as well as the owners and operators of local bars for ensuring the last few years of Sheridan WYO Rodeo celebrations have been safe and fun.
As Sheridan gears-up for another year of good times and entertainment throughout the city, the SPD Captain has asked the public to ensure they have a safe ride home before engaging in the festivities. Driving Under the Influence citation numbers have decreased over the years, a trend the SPD would like to continue.
