Ensuring Safety in an Unpredictable World
With rising threats at special event venues, planning and preparation are more critical than ever. Lives—and financial futures—depend on it. Recent tragedies underscore the need to be fully prepared with a comprehensive plan for a safe and secure event:
- Vancouver Car Attack (April 26, 2025): 11 killed, 25+ injured.
- New Orleans Car Ramming (Jan 1, 2025): 15 killed, dozens injured.
- Magdeburg Christmas Market Attack (Dec 20, 2024): 5 killed, over 200 injured.
- Seoul Crowd Crush (Oct 29, 2022): 151 killed, 82 injured.
- Highland Park Parade Shooting (July 4, 2022): 7 killed, 48 injured.
- Gilroy Garlic Festival Shooting (July 28, 2019): 3 killed, 17 injured.
- Las Vegas Concert Shooting (Oct 1, 2017): 58 killed, over 850 injured.
- Paris Attacks (Nov 13, 2015): 130 killed, over 350 injured.
- Boston Marathon Bombing (Apr 15, 2013): 3 killed, over 260 injured.
These tragedies remind us that preparation is not optional—it’s essential. Failing to prepare not only risks lives but also leaves cities and organizers vulnerable to lawsuits and financial devastation.

Last year was my first year as the Officer In Charge of Special Events. I was alarmed to say the least to find we had no standarized operational plans for ANY of our numerous special events. I’ve spent the last year “winging it” and creating Op-plans. Your class would have saved me many sleepless nights. As you know. many law enforcement courses are… well.. a waste of time. Yours was definitely not. Thanks for providing such highly qualified instructors!
