For this special occasion, we conducted a number of events throughout the year. Founded in 1922, the CMPD is one of the longest lasting recreation agencies in the state, and we're proud of our three-quarters of a century worth of accomplishments. Just as importantly, however, was the unique opportunity that our anniversary presented to reach out to the community and promote our current programs. Here are a few of the efforts we undertook to commemorate our anniversary, shared in the hopes that you might find some inspiration if you are planning your own observance. Don't miss a chance to link your anniversary to all of your programs, trips and special events.
Symbolism is a powerful tool.
