The Dublin Police Department is constantly striving to better its policies, procedures and connection with the Dublin community.
Dublin Police are popping up in parks this summer with free sweet treats and friendly conversation! This is a new initiative for 2026.
Cool Treats with Dublin Police is a simple way for officers to connect with residents, families and young people in a relaxed neighborhood setting. Officers will visit local parks with freeze pops or other sweet treats, creating an easy opportunity to say hello, ask questions and build positive connections.
Families, kids, parents and caregivers are invited to stop by, enjoy a treat and meet a Dublin Police officer.
Here are the planned stops so far:
June 25 | 3 to 4 p.m. | Llewelyn Farms Park, 4850 Tuttle Road
July 2 | 10 to 11 a.m. | Scottish Corners Park, 5952 Sells Mill Drive
July 16 | 10-noon | Dublin Community Pool North, 5660 Dublinshire Dr.
New locations will be announced each week, so keep an eye out for where DPD will pop up next!
You might also get a free sweet treat if you’re “caught” making a smart safety choice this summer! Dublin Police will hand out free scoop coupons from Johnson’s Real Ice Cream to residents who are wearing helmets, buckling up and doing their part to stay safe!
Invite a Dublin Police officer to your event to learn more about the police department, including topics like crime prevention, neighborhood watch, the 24-hour anonymous tip line, traffic information and more. This is a free service.
A ride-along offers the public a way to experience the duties and responsibilities of a Dublin Police officer while they are serving the community. Anyone 18 years or older who passes a criminal background check can ride along with a Dublin Police officer during a routine patrol. Riders are strictly limited to observation. People may only ride with a Dublin Police officer once every six months. A four-day notice to the Dublin Police must be given before the department can schedule a ride-along.
There are four Community Liaison Officers (CLOs) with the Dublin Police. CLOs work to enhance the department’s outreach and engagement efforts, focused on:
