Hi, I'm Kim Cool, Senior Services Program Manager for Bullhead City. And I'd like to tell you about the senior campus. The senior campus is a hot spot for active individuals ages 50 plus. We offer daily activities, including various exercise classes, like Zumba, eccentrics, commonly known as aging backwards, body moves for brain power, arthritis pain exercise, fall prevention classes, relaxation, and mindfulness exercise, and chair exercise. If you're creative or would just like to learn, we've got lots to offer with beating, crocheting, knitting, sewing, quilting, painting, drawing classes, and card making. Perhaps you're a game player. Well, don't worry, we've got you covered with bingo, pinnackle, poker, hand in foot, past the trash, bunko, Mexican train, and skip bow. There's also computers, puzzles, games, books, videos, and DVDs to keep you entertained. Many people just need support or resources, and we're your hub for giving you the contacts you need. Plus, we offer meetings to include veterans' benefits, Medicare information, technology tutoring, document preparation assistance, men's support group, caregiver support, bereavement support for those recovering from loss, cancer support, gamblers anonymous, dementia education, and amputee support. There are just so many opportunities for making new friends by attending our parties, ice cream socials, line dancing, karaoke, monthly birthday celebration, and happy hour. Most importantly, we make sure you're educated through monthly lunch and learns and our free mini clinic. You owe it to yourself to come in and check us out. Perhaps during our Monday through Friday nutritious congregate lunch. Lunches are served at 11:30 and last lunch is at noon, with a suggested donation of $3 from those aged 60 and above or disabled individuals, and $4 to those who are under 60. All this said, the senior campus also extends our reach with the Meals on Wheels program, delivering lunches and a wellness check to many area seniors who are homebound. Plus, we are home to the Angels Essential Area, where individuals can shop freely for durable medical equipment donated by our local community.

We are located off Highway 95 between Marina Boulevard and Hancock Road, right next to City Hall. We've had many, many problems. You've heard me talking about the wipes and the flushable wipes that are really not flushable. We've had to replace two or three uh pumps at the beginning of that plant to a cost of about 40,000 apiece just about every year. Bullhead City was incorporated in August of 1984. The police department took over in 1985. We are in the Northwest area of Arizona, and we sit right on the Colorado River, right across the river from Laughlin, Nevada. Our mission here is to make sure that we provide the service that the citizens want and deserve by getting out into the community and listening to them, carrying what they want out of their police department, and then changing our practices accordingly. The way the system of government is set up in America, the citizens give us our power and authority. And so it's really important that we get out and we listen to them. So getting out in the community gives them a chance to come up and tell us what they want and ask us questions and get to know us. My focus on constitutional policing is keeping it at the forefront. The Constitution is such an important document in our society in our way of life that uh you understand that our authority to police comes from the consent of the government. So if you understand that principle, it gives that document a different dimension. So constitutional policing for me is keeping it at the front, making sure my decisions are in line with the principles of the Constitution. And you also have to evaluate how has the Constitution been interpreted by the courts. They're waterway patrols. They do a lot of OHV, which is the off-highway vehicle or the UTV patrols as well. So through the deserts on like Can Ams or side by sides. We do a lot of those patrols and enforcements as well. They do a lot of homeless uh outreach because in our area, there's because of the weather. You can have a lot more homeless than say somewhere cold. So we have a lot that are out in the desert that we can go out to with those UTVs and those side-by-sides, and we can reach out to them and provide them some of their resources. Our officers, every every year, coming back from summer vacation and from Christmas vacation. We have officers get out in the school zones, every school zone in town, uh for about two, three weeks.
