The City of Garden Grove is full of fun and exciting things to do and see. We also care about the health of our residents and students. Recently Misha and Nellie, the Garden Grove Police Department's Canine Support Dogs were introduced to a packed house at Mitchell Elementary School. Don't miss this! Plus, the City once again closed streets to cars and held a big party downtown. Residents, businesses and visitors were able to get a glimpse into the future and see how Garden Grove could evolve over time. And, the Strawberry Festival is back!

The celebration will include a special reading, a ribbon cutting, lawn games and sidewalk chalk, a chance to get to know neighbors, and snacks.

For more information, contact Julie Caldera, Little Free Library Steward, at (310) 722-4921 or tonyjuliecaldera@gmail.com

Canine Support Dogs Mischa and Nellie have a big job to do for the Garden Grove Police Department. They partner with School Resource Officers Patrick Julienne and Derek Link to calm people down, deescalate situations and bring smiles to faces that were previously sad or angry. The Support Canine Program is a collaboration between the Garden Grove Police Department and the Garden Grove Unified School District. Join GGTV3 Reporter Breanna Greenup as she meets these four-legged stress relievers in person.

This is the Garden Grove's State of the City presentation for 2022. The event was presented by the Garden Grove Chamber of Commerce to a live audience of over 400 at the Hyatt Regency Orange County.
