Loves Park Dare graduates 75

With the growing need to educate and protect the lives of our children about the dangers of using drugs the DARE program is doing just that. Loves Park is on the offensive largely with the efforts of Officer Randy Jones. Here is a recent article regarding the latest graduates from one of our local grade schools.

Officer Jones talks with youths and their parents at the annual Police exhibit at Cherryvale Mall

__________________________________________________

This weekend (Fri., May 19- Sun., May 21) at Cherryvale Mall center court the Loves Park Police Department has a display booth with a squad car and our Dare corvette that was seized from a past drug bust. Take your kids with you to visit the booth and say hi to Officer Jones. There are many other police departments and armed forces (Army, Navy, Air Force and Marines) with booths. While attending this year's exhibit I had the opportunity to try the Army's virtual training range, better than any video game on the market (though not a toy). This is a great educational event for adults and children and gives you the opportunity to meet our officers in a positive environment
