RCPD comments on the Fake Patty's Day celebration

Posted Mar 11, 2025 9:18 PM

This past weekend, RCPD said that they  witnessed something truly special: a collective effort to keep our community safe during the festivities. To students, party-goers, and everyone who participated—THANK YOU.

Thank you for looking out for one another, for working with officers to foster mutual respect, and for helping de-escalate situations when needed. Your actions made a real difference. While we don’t have the final numbers yet, we noticed a marked improvement in behavior compared to previous years. This positive change didn’t happen by accident—it happened because of YOU.

RCPD said that their campaign to educate and move away from poor behaviors of the past was successful, and they couldn’t be more grateful for your cooperation.
