Color Guard

The Peoria Police Department Color Guard was formed many years ago for the purpose of providing the display of our flags of the United States of America, Illinois State Flag, City of Peoria Flag, and  Peoria Police Department flag. Rifle drill personnel were added in recent years. The Color Guard has provided services for parades, funeral services, memorial services, awards ceremonies, inaugurations, meetings, and sporting events. It is comprised of both male and female officers who volunteer. They devote many hours training to perfect their performance.
