Help Us Build a Memorial for Flight 629

We are raising the money through donations with those giving $30 or more receiving the limited edition Flight 629 Memorial Challenge Coin as our gift to you. All the funds raised will go toward the memorial. Would you help us correct this oversight and help us honor the victims of this tragedy with your donation?

The Flight 629 memorial will serve as a permanent marker to preserve the history of the tragic event of Flight 629—the first plane bombing over U.S. soil—and will honor the 44 passengers and crew who were killed in the explosion and crash. Your donation will directly support the building of the memorial in Weld County where the tragedy occurred.



Denver Police Museum Invites Community Input

As an independent nonprofit organization, the Denver Police Museum is seeking input from the community about law enforcement in Denver broadly, solutions to improving community relations, and what role the Museum could play to improve trust and understanding between law enforcement and our community.

‘Work hard and do the work’: Retired division chief honored by Denver Police Museum

In recent years, the Denver Police Department has been vocal about its efforts to recruit and retain officers from diverse backgrounds. Before those efforts many years ago, there were a select few who joined the ranks when most of their counterparts didn’t look like them. Charles “CT” Smith is one of those trailblazers. This week, his accomplishments were recognized by the Denver Police Museum, Denver Black Police Officers Association, and the Denver Police Department.
