"Turn the town Blue" | May 16th in Georgetown, Delaware

On a cool Monday night in May, citizens, local residents and members of law enforcement gathered together on Georgetown's historic Circle. We came out to show that we care; to say thank you to local officers; to make a stand and show that we are here to back our men and women of the police departments.

It was a grassroots kind of thing, meaning I didn't catch anything in the paper about it and other than this signage on the fire department down the street it appeared to be all word of mouth. And yet people came out, wearing sweatshirts and baseball caps that showed they were here for their law enforcement, bringing signs and flags and offering thanks to the officers present.
