SOLID Support for Law Enforcement

It is important to remind ourselves of those who put their lives on the line to safeguard our lives and property.  Special thanks to groups like S.O.L.I.D. who support law enforcement.  Be sure to attend their pasta dinner next month in Northridge on the 14th.  Great cause and great people.  The photo below is from this past Saturday's Open House at LAPD's Devonshire Division station.
