2011 PMRPD Foundation Event Illustrates Community Support

POCONO SUMMIT- Plans to surpass last year's numbers exceeded the goals of the Pocono Mountain Regional Police Foundation at 2011's fundraising weekend October 15th and 16th. The community showed their support in both attendance and monetary numbers for the organization. As municipalities brace themselves for 2012 budget deliberations, the PMRPF's efforts to subsidize funding for valuable safety equipment and State of the Art technology is a proven asset to the department and taxpayers. At a time when tax savings per household is imperative, these events to draw alternative revenue is crucial. Volunteers rallied to make the organization's 2 day weekend of events a success with the PMRPF collecting just under $25,000 and $12, 000 of in kind contributions.
