The Thornville Police Department lead the July 4, 2008 parade through town with Mayor Beth Patrick. Throughout the day, the Thornville Police Department provided both traffic and safety control to ensure everyone enjoyed a safe holiday.
The flood waters on June 27, 2008 that shut down Interstate 70 in both the East and West bound directions sent a flood of vehicles through the center of Thornville. Traffic kept moving smoothly thanks to Thornville Police Department's Chief Nick Garver.
