Citizens Police Academy Alumni at Texas Cowboy Symposium

James Ambrose, and Stacy Ferguson, members of the Citizens Police Academy Alumni (CPA) organization, volunteer to support the Granbury Police Department at public events and behind the scenes.

Ferguson and Ambrose manned the GPD table at The Texas Cowboy Symposium Saturday, Sept. 28. The CPA, made up of graduates from the free Citizens Police Academy course offered every spring, raises funds for equipment, events, and officer benevolence not covered by the city budget.

They also provide additional manpower for parades and large gatherings, helping to strengthen the bond between the police and the community. All funds raised by the CPA, a 501(c)(3) organization, directly benefit the Granbury Police Department.
