The Vancouver Police Department held an event at the East Precinct on September 9, 2015, to show girls of all ages that being a police officer is an “awesome” career choice. The event was inspired by four-year-old Kinley Goertler of Camas who was disappointed when she learned there were no girl SWAT costumes available at the store. Her story sparked a national response from law enforcement in all 50 states.
