The Town is holding its first Rivers Alive event on Saturday November 7, 2009. Volunteers will meet at Town Hall at 9am for a safety meeting and then split up to work on cleaning up areas along Line Creek.
Please visit the event page at http://www.tyrone.org/riversalive for more information.
Way of Life Church is hosting a Back to School Bash on Saturday July 18 from 11 am to 3:30 pm at Veteran's Park.
The event will feature entertainment, games, prizes, an obstacle course, and inflatable "jumpies". Food and refreshments will be available at reasonable prices - all other activities are free!
It's unfortunate, but public safety agencies tend to experience a rise in incidents, accidents, injuries, and fatalities during holidays. With the 4th of July weekend upon us, we want to remind you to exercise vigilance while you are celebrating with your family and friends.

The TPD wants to remind all of our citizens that we offer a free community alert service, which provides pertinent updates and alerts on police activity and emergency situations. You can receive alerts on the web, via email, and via text messages to your cellular phone.
