 Captain Daniel Howard of the St. Louis Metropolitan Police Department was recognized last month with the 2013 Spirit of Justice Award from the Saint Louis Bar Foundation for his work each year on the Motion For Kids event at the Edward Jones Dome.  For more than 18 years, Capt. Howard has volunteered to recruit and manage the security at the Dome while 3,000 kids and their families participate in the all-day party.  Watching him in action at the event, it is clear that he genuinely cares about giving the kids a great day to remember.

Howard is the Commander of SLMPD's 1st District in the neighborhoods of Bevo Mill, Boulevard Heights, Carondelet Park, Dutchtown, Holly Hills, Mount Pleasant, Patch, and portions of Marine Villa and Princeton Heights.  He has spearheaded the Neighborhood Ownership Model program in his District, and as a result crime is down 27% in his District since the program began just over two years ago.  His goal is to achieve 1,000 volunteers to help his force keep the streets crime free.

Congratulations, Capt. Howard!
