since we added a full bar instead of just beer and wine we need to hire security for our venue. Does anyone have any recommendations please?!?!

    Does the venue have 1) someone they normally use; 2) requirements such as certified peace officer? Lots of police officers moonlight as security. Do you live in an apartment complex? They usually give a law enforcement discount and might be willing to pass along a message to an officer or two living on property. Is there a college campus nearby? There should be licensed officers on their staff and the departments are usually pretty small so it's not hard to pass the word around.

    Good luck!

    I think you can contact local PDs and ask if any officers work security.

    You can also contact your local sheriff's department. We used off-duty wardens.

    I contacted the Frisco PD (where the venue is) and they charge $280 for 2 off suty officers for 4 hours. Does that sound about right?
