One whose brother is on the force. Another who grew up in Woodbury and was a member of the city’s police and fire explorer programs. The third coming with rave reviews from a nearby department—and her husband was watching online from Afghanistan.
Three new Woodbury police officers were sworn in during Wednesday night’s City Council meeting. Dozens of friends and family members, along with public safety personnel, were on hand for the ceremony.
The new officers are Brett Roddy, Garrett Kissner and Caitlin Jaworski. They were chosen from a field of more than 200 applicants, said Public Safety Chief Lee Vague.
Roddy comes from a public safety family, Vague said, and has a brother in the Woodbury department.
Kissner, was hired as a community service officer in 2009 and grew up in the city.
Jaworski was highly recommended by the Bayport Police Department, the chief said, and also works with the nonprofit organization CornerHouse.
