A Note from the Chief

Happy Holidays from the New Glarus Police Department, once again we bring another year to a close. Looking back over the past year, I’m glad to report that overall it has been a successful year. Even after eighteen plus festivals, attended by thousands of guests with lots of beer served, once again the police department is glad to report that we didn’t have any arrests during any of the community events! That is just amazing and speaks volumes for the community as a group. Remember, all our community events are made possible only due to the many volunteer workers from our community.
