Last week day shift was gifted with baked goods and letters of support for our officers by Meghan Austin and her family. Meghan gradated from our Youth Academy last summer and had an amazing expereince and wanted to show her support. The officers wanted to thank Meghan and her family for the letter's of support and some refreshing baked goods.

This past Friday our officers proudly participated in the 42nd annual Law Enforcement Torch Run for the Special Olympics of New Jersey. The Palmyra Police were joined by law enforcement agencies across the state to help carry the Flame of Hope to continue to raise awareness and support for the amazing athletes of the Special Olympics.
