#CPDPumpkinHunt

WHO: Chattanooga Police Department, Department of Youth & Family Development

WHAT: The Great CPD Pumpkin Hunt. CPD is partnering with YFD to encourage a fun way for kids and their families to learn more about the Real Time Intelligence Center (RTIC) and the public safety cameras placed around the city.

It's easy to participate...just find the pumpkins around the city, take a photo of the pumpkin at each location, post it to social media (Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram) using the hashtag #CPDPumpkinHunt, repeat for all 15 locations, then send an email to emoss@chattanooga.gov to receive a prize pack (must pick up at a YFD center).

A Grand Prize winner will be selected from completed entries. The winner will get a private tour of the RTIC.

WHERE: 15 locations (see attachment)

WHEN: October 16-31, 2017

The Real Time Intelligence Center (RTIC) is a major initiative by the Mayor Andy Berke and Chattanooga Police Department to help keep people safe by reducing violent crime in our communities. Our community investment in the RTIC means police have the tools, technology, and data to respond quickly to the community's needs and successfully prosecute violent aggressors. The RTIC has three major components including a crime analysis team, real time reporting for faster, smarter deployment of resources, and public safety cameras.
