Trunk or Treat!!
The second annual "Trunk or Treat" was held October 29 at the Heritage Museums & Gardens. Adorable kids and amazing costumes took center stage, as the little ones (and some costumed parents) were treated to an abundance of sugar, we mean ... candy! Our very own SCPAA witch (initials P.L.) assisted with the hayrides. The weather couldn't have been better, and the 18 SCPAA volunteers enjoyed it all.

Halloween Night Patrol
We don't have any pictures of Halloween Night Patrol because, well, it was dark! The amount of trick-or-treaters was smaller this year, maybe because it was a school night. But our intrepid volunteers were on hand regardless:
Jackie England, Bernie Ferioli, Jerry Fortin, Charles Holden. Sue & Jim Leavey, Heather Marshall, Debbie Merriam, Mike Miller, Ken Mooney, Jeanne Nichols, Kevin Paice, Amanda Pederzani, Carl Rose, Sue Vibberts

2016 ANNUAL MEETING

A LETTER FROM THE PAST PRESIDENT, KEVIN PAICE:
I joined the Alumni group 9 years ago after completing the Citizens Police Academy in June of 2007.
In the past 8 years, I have served on the Board of Directors as Vice President and Volunteer Coordinator and since 2012 I have served as President of this organization.
I am very proud that each year the SCPAA has continued to grow in the scope of its activities and has developed a reputation for getting the job done when needed. During all these years, the focus of the Board was to create an organization to provide service to the Police Department and the Town of Sandwich. It is because of the number of dedicated volunteers that we have been able to fulfill this mission.
While I will continue to volunteer for activities in the future, the time has come for me to step aside in my leadership role of the organization. However, I am able to do so knowing that we have set a strong foundation for this group to continue to grow upon.
Thank you to Chief Wack, Deputy Chief Nurse, and all of the other officers for their guidance and support of this organization.
I ask all of you to support Mike Miller, as he takes over the role of President of the organization. Thank you to the members of the Board who have supported me throughout these years.
