2025 Annual Awards
Every year, Administrative and Command Staff decide upon NPD staff, both sworn and civilian who went above and beyond the call of duty. These staff are recognized at the Annual Banquet, typically held in February. It provides an opportunity for great food, fellowship, and an excuse to get dressed up and out of those Class B uniforms!
