The Fargo Police Department is excited to welcome the winners of our Sticker Coloring Contest, along with their families, for a special visit to FPD Headquarters on Tuesday, August 27. These young artists will be honored for their creativity and given an inside look at the department's headquarters.

During the Fargo Police Community Picnic in June, children ages 12 and under were invited to bring their imaginations to life by designing FPD patches, badges and squad cars. The community showed their support by voting for their favorite designs on Fargo Police's social media channels and the following individuals were selected as the winners:
• Squad car design: Druva, age 12
• Badge design: Colton, age 10
• Patch design: Kinah, age 12

These winning designs have been created into stickers that officers will share with the community at future events. Additionally, magnets featuring the artwork will appear on FPD squad cars through September, showcasing the creativity of Fargo's youth.

"We're committed to building strong relationships with the young members of our community," said Police Chief Dave Zibolski. "The Sticker Coloring Contest and Fargo Police Community Picnic are just two of the many ways we connect with residents of all ages. We're incredibly proud of all the children who participated - their creativity was very stylish."
