Welcome to the Garden Grove Police Department Retirees and Former Employees web page. When you started in police work I’m not sure what you expected. But I think each of you came with a purpose. You answered a calling to public service.

FALLEN FIVE MEMORIAL GOLF TOURNAMENT
This year's Fallen Five Memorial Golf Tournament will be held on Monday, March 15, 2010 at the Tijeras Creek Golf Club in Rancho Santa Margarita. There will be a 10 am checkin, and a 12 pm shotgun start. The Association is very excited about this year's tournament, and we are sure that everyone who attends will have a great time. The cost for the Tournament is $125.00/golfer, which includes the green fees, cart, range balls, lunch, on-course refreshments, and a buffet dinner. There will also be prizes for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place (let's see if Fire can do it), longest drives, and closet to pins. We will also be having numerous raffle prizes.
Registration flyers will be coming out in the next week or so, but spots are already filling up. 36 foursomes max out the Tournament. Therefore, if anyone is interested and has a foursome in mind, please email me so I can pencil you in.
The Association and the Golf Committee are looking forward to seeing many of you participate in this year's Tournament.
Thanks in advance,
