📢 Important Reminder for Little Defenders 2026 Families📢

😇 Thank you to everyone who has registered for our 2026 Little Defenders Summer Camp! We are excited to provide another great experience for our future defenders.

📧 At this time, all families who have registered must submit their email address (if you have not already done so) so we can send the required liability and photography waivers for completion.

💰 Additionally, payment is required to secure your child’s spot in camp. We currently have a growing waitlist of families who are prepared to submit both payment and completed paperwork.

‼️Deadline: June 30, 2026‼️

Any registered participant who has not submitted both:
• Completed waivers
• Full payment

By June 30 may forfeit their reserved spot. Beginning July 1, available spots will be offered to families on the waitlist who are ready to complete those requirements.

This deadline is necessary because all completed waivers must be submitted to the 436th Public Affairs Office by the end of June so they can coordinate photography coverage during camp activities.

If you have not received the waiver packet or need assistance, please contact us as soon as possible.

If you have any questions, comments, or concerns, please reach out to Miranda Graham or our email:

We appreciate your cooperation and look forward to an incredible Little Defenders 2026!

Happy Monday!!
Attention parents of our 2026 Little Defenders Camp!!!

We only have 50 spots for campers. Yesterday morning, I sent out emails with our liability and photo release waivers. If you did not receive an email, please let Miranda Graham know ASAP so you can sign one. We need them before camp starts.

I sent out a text message to 11 people who already signed up, and if you wish to keep your child's spot, I need your emails so we can send the waivers to you.

We already have a growing waitlist. If we do not hear back from parents who have already signed up by June 30th, we will start replacing you with people from the waitlist who are ready to go.

Day 3 of National Police Week:

Defender Ball. The game our very own Cheif brought to the squadron! We had tons of fun! Personally, my favorite part of Police Week is seeing the members of our squadron come together, bring out each other’s competitive sides, and laughing the whole day. Great job to all the teams that came out and played! Congratulations to Dem Boyz who took the first championship 🏆
