Danbury, CT Police Explorers Fundraiser

[SageVigiles 1,194]

The Danbury Police Explorers are currently raising money to fund a new van. Their program is one of the largest in New England, when I aged out we had 75 Explorers; now they are up to about 100 members; however, they only have two 15-passenger vans at their disposal. These young men and women do an incredible amount of work to support DPD and the entire Danbury community; including supporting the Patrol Division with traffic, parking, and/or security details for special events, conducting land searches to support missing persons and other Detective Bureau cases, performing Honor Guard duties at ceremonies, among other duties. On average they support about six events per month, and the program receives very little in terms of funding from the City.

Please consider donating to help these guys get a new vehicle so they can continue to support events in the western CT area:

In case you have a car to show off and are willing to bring it to the Danbury area, the Danbury Police Explorers are holding a car show at St. Gregory the Great Church in Danbury.  Gotta admit, they are trying hard to raise the van money this year.  Best of luck to them.
