PARK RANGER AWARDED LAW ENFORCEMENT CERTIFICATE

Congratulations to Park Ranger Thomas Roehm, who recently earned the prestigious North Carolina Advanced Law Enforcement Certificate. The award was originally presented to him in Raleigh before the members of NC Criminal Justice Training and Standards Commission, shown here with Thomas and his wife Tasmyn.

Thomas was also honored at a recent meeting of the High Point Parks & Recreation Commission. Chief Park Ranger Dennis Salgado presented Park Ranger Roehm with a framed copy of his certificate at the June meeting of the High Point Parks & Recreation Commission.

Thomas serves our community as a park ranger. He has over six years of law enforcement experience, holds a bachelor's degree in sociology with a minor in criminal justice from UNC-Charlotte and has completed over 699 hours of advanced professional training.

High Point is one of only a handful of municipalities in North Carolina with sworn law enforcement officers serving as park rangers. The department is grateful for the work that its park rangers do, in cooperation with the High Point Police Department, to keep the City’s parks, facilities and events safe.
