Show your support and be part of a great cause by signing up for the Run for Blue! This event is a wonderful opportunity to come together as a community, promote health and wellness, and show appreciation for those who serve and protect.

Some of our past and current Explorer Cadets will also be participating and volunteering throughout the event, assisting along the parade route, helping with logistics, and providing support to ensure a safe and successful experience for everyone involved.

Come out, run or walk, cheer on participants, and support our Police Foundation that gives back to our Police department as well as our Police Explorers.

As we enter Memorial Day Weekend, we would like to take a moment to honor and remember the brave men and women of our United States Military who made the ultimate sacrifice while defending our country and protecting our freedoms.

Memorial Day is more than just a long weekend — it is a time of reflection, remembrance, and gratitude for those who gave their lives in service to our nation. Because of their courage, sacrifice, and selflessness, we are able to enjoy the freedoms and opportunities we often take for granted each and every day.

We also extend our deepest appreciation to all veterans, active-duty service members, and military families who continue to sacrifice so much for this country. Your dedication, strength, and commitment to protecting the American people will never go unnoticed.

As families and friends gather this weekend, let us all remember the true meaning of Memorial Day and take a moment to honor those who are no longer with us. Their legacy, bravery, and sacrifice will never be forgotten.

Thank you for your service. Thank you for your sacrifice. And thank you for the freedom we enjoy because of you.

God Bless our fallen heroes, our military, our veterans, and the United States of America.

Explorer Cadets were out in full force providing assistance with parking operations, helping ensure pedestrians crossed safely, and maintaining a strong visible presence throughout the event.

Their professionalism, teamwork, and dedication to public service were on full display as they assisted attendees, supported event operations, and helped contribute to a safe and organized environment for everyone in attendance.

These young men and women continue to gain valuable real-world experience in leadership, communication, and community relations while proudly representing the program and the values it stands for. We are extremely proud of their commitment, positive attitudes, and willingness to step up and serve the community whenever called upon.

The Explorer cadets recently attended their annual training at Rutgers University School of Law, where they participated in mock trials focused on homicide cases. This valuable experience provided them with hands-on insight into courtroom procedures, legal processes, and the complexities involved in prosecuting serious criminal cases.
