Highland residents generally have a strong sense of community, as is evidenced by the number of residents who regularly volunteer their time, both to the city and to the Police/Sheriff’s Station. Reserve Deputy Sheriff’s benefit the Highland Station by volunteering their time working patrol and supplementing the patrol staff. Reserves also provide security and traffic control at all local community events such as the Citrus Harvest Festival, Discover Highland Night, the YMCA Annual Run, and many other local functions.
Citizen Volunteers also play an essential role, providing extra-patrol to local residents and businesses while assisting patrol personnel at the scenes of major traffic collisions, crime scene perimeters, and assisting at many local community events.
