Vernon Police Explorers Start Fund-Raising Efforts

The campaign will continue through February.

The Vernon Police Explorers Post 800 began a fund-raising drive on Monday. 

The local Explorers have contracted with Chuck Maher Promotions of Shelton to conduct the telemarketing fund-raising drive. The funds raised will help defray the post’s operating costs including the cost of the Post’s attendance at the 2014 National Explorer Conference in Bloomington, IN.

Explorer supervisor Lt. William Meier of the Vernon Police Department said those wishing to make a donation outside the telemarketing campaign can write a check payable to the Vernon Police Explorers Post 800 and mail it to 725 Hartford Turnpike, Vernon, CT 06066. 

Questions can be directed to Meier at 860-872-9126, ext. 221. 

The fund-raising campaign will continue through February 2014, Meier said.
