There will be a 10am police parade will agencies from across NE Oklahoma in downtown Pawnee followed by refreshments at the Pawnee County Historical Society Museum. There will be a Pawnee Police Department Open House from 11:00 to 1:00 with finger foods and police themed goodie bags for the kids. VIP area for law enforcement! There will be a Fall Festival happening on the Townsquare from 9:00-3:00 with vendors, bounce house, farmers market, food trucks and more! This is also Pawnee's City-Wide Yard Sale Day! Come back the blue with us on October 5th and celebrate an historical police character, Dick Tracy! Dick Tracy is one of America’s first animated police officers. Tracy was created by a cartoonist named Chester Gould, who later wrote the animated comic strip for various newspapers such as the Chicago Tribune. Chester Gould was born in Pawnee Oklahoma and spent the early part of his life here. His work is remembered through our historical museum and through a large mural on a historic downtown building. He is also the face on our Pawnee Police Department badge!
