Democratic Club’s monthly meeting, Wednesday, June 10, at 7 o’clock in the Rotunda Room of the Vets Auditorium, 4117 Overland Ave.
Refreshments will be served at 6:45.
Chief Bixby is a longtime resident of Culver City and 35-year veteran of the Police Dept.
As a youth he attended Braddock Elementary School, El Rincon, Culver City Junior High, Culver City High School and West Los Angeles College.
Chief Bixby’s first interest in law enforcement was when “Policeman Bill,” a bigger-than-life hero, came to his first grade class.
He joined Police Dept.’s Explorer program in 1974, at the age of 15.
In January 1980, he was hired as a Community Service Officer, and later that same year was promoted to police officer. He has worked uniformed patrol, traffic enforcement, as motor officer, investigator, and with local and federal narcotics task forces.
During his years of local service, Mr. Bixby attained the ranks of sergeant, lieutenant, captain, and assistant chief in April 2014, succeeding Don Pederson.
The Democratic Club has been active in local, state and national politics since 1953. The club has been a force in electing candidates to local office, as well as to state and national positions.
Many members of the City Council have been members of the club, including four of the five current Council members.
