Subject: Traffic Holiday Potluck!

Hello Traffic Division retirees. I hope everyone is doing well. As the year comes to a close, the Portland Police Bureau’s Traffic Division will be holding its annual potluck on December 17, 2025, at 11:30 AM at Crossroads Church, located at 2505 NE 102nd Ave, in the lower classroom.

We would love to see retirees at this event. This is an open invitation for you to come, mingle with current Traffic Division members, and show them that there is life after work. If you feel like bringing a dish, that’s great, but most importantly, we simply hope you can join us.

If you know other former Traffic Division members who may not have received this message, please feel free to pass the word along. We want to make sure everyone has the opportunity to attend.

Please feel free to reach out to me or any other Traffic Division member you know if you have any questions about the potluck. We hope to see you there!

Thanks!

Thor
