Snoqualmie, WALocal News

Snoqualmie residents are invited to join Police Chief Lynch for coffee and conversation sessions on May 29 and 30, providing a unique platform for community engagement.

Such interactions are vital for building trust and transparency between law enforcement and the community.

The coffee sessions not only facilitate direct communication but also reinforce the police department's commitment to community-oriented policing. By participating, residents can play an active role in shaping local public safety policies. This initiative underscores the importance of community involvement in ensuring effective law enforcement.
