The station is not unfamiliar to Mr Grant who occasionally attended during his 22-year-career as a police officer in the Dubbo region.
“I spent time here on and off for courses and as a HR officer, I know the issues for police,” Mr Grant said.
The father-of-two was in town on Monday to thank the community for its support in the NSW state election.
