We Would Like To Thank Fox Security For Sponsoring Angels Camp Police Dept Releases

Due to budgetary constraints the Angels Camp Police Department had fewer officers working the fair weekend this year. Only one additional officer was staffed for patrol this year, on Friday and Saturday from 6 PM to 2 AM.

As we approach the busy summer travel and vacation season the Angels Camp Police Department would like to remind the motoring public to designate a sober driver.
