...Sergeant Sharon Bach of the Edmonton Police Service on her retirement. Sharon contacted me about a month ago to let me know that she was starting "pre-retirement" leave. This marks the end of an absolutely stellar 30 year career. Sharon may be better known to many IAWP friends as the Conference Director from the IAWP 2001 Conference in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. Please be sure to check the fall issue of Women Police for further highlights of Sharon's work and lifetime achievements. In the meantime, please join me in wishing her luck as she moves the next phase in her life.
...Vancouver Police Department for their celebrations this year of 100 years of women in policing in the city. The VPD is hosting a conference this fall (just after IAWP 2012) to mark this occassion. The Vancouver Police Museum will creating special biographies of past and present women police. I hope to keep in touch with one or two well known IAWP/VPD members and post thier bios here for you. Be sure to check back over the summer!
