wrapped_present_boxAlong with the Good Shepard Hospice, the Long Beach Auxiliary Police collected toys for this holiday season for children who have lost a parent or a loved one.

We greatly appreciate all of the people who participated in this heartfelt event by donating unwrapped gifts of $5 - $10 (toys, clothing, accessories, etc.) for a boy or girl between the ages of 5 to 17 years old.

The Auxiliary Police delivered the gifts to the children on December 5, 2009.

Your generosity certainly put smiles on the faces of children that were missing that someone special during the holiday season.

Nassau County Auxiliary Police Academy Graduation 11/04/09

ncpd-emblemFive Long Beach Auxiliary Police officers were among the thirty-two graduates of the Nassau County Auxiliary Police Academy.  This intensive and impressive training spanned 26 weeks and offered phenomenal resources, experience and training.  Long Beach Police Department and Auxiliary Police attended as a unit to both congratulate our members and meet and chat with our brethren in the County. Family and friends of the graduates were also proudly present.  The ceremony was followed by celebratory meal.

We are all immensely proud of our graduates who now join the ranks of many other LBAPD officers who committed themselves to these six months of training and to our community-at-large.  A job well done and an amazing representation of and testament to the high standards that the Long Beach Auxiliary Police Department has maintained for over 50 years!

The event was held on Sunday October 25, 2009 at 4:00 pm at Temple Emanu-El located at 455 Neptune Boulevard in Long Beach.

There was a nice Auxiliary Police presence- dressed in Class A uniforms.  LBPD officers, also in Class A uniforms were present as well.

Family members were also present.  Following the presentation and special blessings on the First Responders and their families, coffee and cakes were served and fine conversation was held by all.

First Responders act out of kindness and duty- not for recognition.  Nonetheless it feels great to know that the community and the community leaders support the efforts of these fine individuals and acknowledge the roles that their families play as well.
