From the Eastham Police Department Facebook page:

Please join us in welcoming the newest member of our department, Officer Knowles! The impressive statue is named in honor of Chief Winfred “Winnie” Knowles, the first official Chief of the Eastham Police Department. Chief Knowles was appointed as chief in 1954 and served as such until he retired in 1968.

Deputy Chief Deschamps and Lieutenant Schnitzer received this impressive gift from Thomas Simeone earlier today. Fun fact, Chief Knowles is actually Deputy Chief Deschamps great-grandfather!!

“Officer Knowles” was built and donated by Mr. Simeone with the assistance of Bob Nelson. The lumber used to create Officer Knowles was donated by Shepley Wood Products and the paint was donated by Baskin’s Ace Hardware. We’d like to thank everyone involved for this generous gift!

Feel free to stop by and visit Officer Knowles as he stoically stands guard at our front entrance!
