The Police Activities League of Sumner is proud to highlight the continued success of our PAL Badges & Boxing program. Thanks to the incredible generosity of our supporters, we’ve received not only financial contributions to support initiatives like Camp Possible and other future youth programs, but also vital equipment donations.
A special thank you goes to Officer Craig Hanuami of the Bellevue Police Department. After connecting with Officer Anderson, Officer Hanuami learned about our need for boxing equipment. Demonstrating true community spirit, he partnered with Barry Nakayama who runs a local martial arts gym in Issaquah, who generously donated several pairs of boxing gloves for our Badges & Boxing program.
Officer Hanuami’s support exemplifies the kind of interagency collaboration that uplifts and strengthens communities. While he already goes above and beyond for his own city, his outreach and dedication now extend to the youth of Sumner, and we are deeply grateful.
We are also grateful to highlight our partnership with the Gordon Family YMCA, where Badges & Boxing became a program offered at Teen Night on Fridays. Last Friday was the opening night and was a great turnout and great time.
These partnerships are essential as we continue to expand our programs. We are excited to watch our youth grow, learn, and thrive through the opportunities made possible by these connections.
Thank you again to everyone who contributes to our mission.

This week is also National Public Safety Telecommunicators Week !
We would like to honor the unseen heroes who are the calm in the chaos—our 911 Telecommunicators.
They are the first voice you hear in an emergency, working 24/7, 365 days a year to keep our communities safe. They provide critical instructions, comfort scared callers, and coordinate the rapid response of police, fire, and EMS—all while staying composed under pressure.
We thank you.
We see you.
We appreciate everything you do.
Please join us in recognizing the dedication, professionalism, and compassion of our 911 dispatchers this week—and every week, especially our partners at South Sound 911!

A Celebration of Animal Care – a Message from the Mayor:
Last Monday, we once again proclaimed our annual celebration of Animal Care & Control Officers week April 13-19. We were lucky enough to have two of our Animal Control Officers, Kacy Alban and Catherine Baldwin, join us for this proclamation. Our entire team at Metro Animal Services always does a fantastic job serving Sumner and our six other partner cities. This year has been specially challenging as in December, crews working to repair the shelter’s flooring found water damage. We quickly hustled our staff and volunteers out of the building, and they safely rehoused over 60 animals that were in our care to partner organizations across the state. Then, they proceeded to respond to calls as best they could from a remote office…through the winter.
We’re so excited that repairs are done for their facility. The building is owned by our partners at City of Puyallup, and we appreciate their response to this situation. We haven’t done a big “ta da” reopening because we’re giving our staff time to figuratively get their ducks in a row before literal cats, dogs and perhaps ducks, come flooding into the shelter. I think we’re now ready! If you need support for your pet, to find a pet or to adopt a pet, start looking at Metro again as we resume normal services. And if you get the chance, thank our staff. Over the years, they’ve endured caring for lizards, giant spiders, snakes, goats, peacocks and all sorts of situations. They’ve reunited pets with owners, helped owners adopt their new best friend and even intervened for animals’ safety in bad situations where animals were at risk. For the past few months, they’ve had to contend with less than ideal circumstances for their own work space, and I appreciate their patience, endurance and humor through it all. This is indeed a special Animal Care & Control Officers week for our own Metro Animal Services.
