The Colorado Springs Police Department (CSPD) is excited to announce its 4th Annual Valentine's Day Contest! For the last few months, a large plushy donut has been rolling around our offices and it’s ready for a new home! 

We are asking for the most creative homemade Valentine's Day Card. CSPD Chief Adrian Vasquez will choose the top three cards. Those cards will then be shared on social media for our community to vote on their favorite. The overall winning valentine’s creator will get this large plushy donut as their own. At the end of the contest, all Valentine's Day Cards that are submitted will be handed out to CSPD officers around the city. 

Who can Participate 

The contest is open to any child 3-10 years of age in the Colorado Springs Community. 

How to Submit a Valentine’s Day Card 

Please address your homemade cards to “The Community Relations Unit” and drop them off or mail them to the Police Operations Center, located at 705 South Nevada Avenue. You can also drop cards off at your nearest substation. Be sure to include the child's name and age, along with a parent or guardian’s name and phone number. The contest will run from January 18, 2023, to February 6, 2023.
