Strathcona Citizens on Patrol were out this weekend (7th June 2025) assisting our fellow Devon Citizens on Patrol with the 75th Devon Days parade.
Members were assigned to intersections along the parade route to clear traffic from the road prior to the parade and help ensure the event was safe and enjoyable for all.
After the parade our members had a lunch and de-brief with the Devon COPs at Marci's grill, great food, if you're in the Devon area check them out.
