Dear Friends and Neighbors

On behalf of the Truro Police Association, I wish to extend our sincere thanks for your generous and continued support over the years.

The association has had another busy year supporting a wide range of activities and programs.  We continue to support and work closely with the D.A.R.E. program, operated by members of the Truro Police Department.  We support many school sponsored events such as class trips, plays and theater productions.  Activities outside school such as those operated by Truro treasures, Truro Boy/Cub Scouts and sporting events are also given priority.  We continuously work with Truro TRIAD and Truro's COA in many of the projects they work on.

We continue to maintain our "adopt an island" on Route 6 at the Pamet Roads cut-off and the flower gardens in front of the public safety facility.  Several police officers donate their time throughout the year tending them.  Every year with a little luck, rain and a lot of sun the look better.

We continue to offer several scholarships to graduating Truro students who seek to further their education at a college or university.  A continuing education scholarship is also awarded to a college student  from Truro wishing to continue on.  Our goal has been to increase the amount to our scholarship awards because of forever increasing tuition costs.

Our senior dinner is still a very successful event.  Held in march, members of the police and fire departments prepare and cook a four course dinner for our seniors.  We have a huge raffle where nobody leaves empty handed and arrange transportation for those who aren't so mobile.  For the past several years the count has been at almost one hundred in attendance. That's alot of dinners!

The Truro Police Association is made up of Police Officers and Telecommunicators of the Truro Police Department.  It does not have an affiliation with any union or labor relations group. It is merely a fraternal and charitable organization within the department that allows us to do good works for Truro.

Although the association focuses it support in Truro, we do at times participate in regional and global causes which provide for the public good.  Over the course of the year, we get a great deal accomplished.  We could never achieve our goals or do what we do without your support.

Can we count on your continued support?
