The Bermuda Police Service held a press conference today [Sept 27] to discuss the plans for the upcoming Police Week, which gets underway this coming Saturday.
The press conference has just concluded and we will try and post additional information later on, and in the meantime the 15-minute live video replay is below.
In explaining the week long event, the police previously said, “The Gymkhana begins at 10am Saturday 30th September. See our website for early registration or turn up on the day and register. All participants must wear a helmet.
“Join us along with the Ex-Police Association as we remember those we’ve lost at 5:30pm on Sunday 1st October at the Police Cemetery located at the end of Alexandra Road, Devonshire.
“Following the ceremony, a sunset performance by the Halton Regional Police Service Pipes and Drums along with Bermuda Island Pipe Band and the Somerset Brigade Band, will be held at Police Headquarters.
