Lake Compounce
Last year the PBA did a Defenders game which had a good turnout but the event was not directly associated with anything related to Police. I had the opportunity last year to also attend a FOP sponsored event at Lake Compounce, that was a great family fun event accompanied by a Candle Light Vigil to salute our fallen brother and sister officers.
The tickets are $30.00 a person, children under 3 are free, as long as we’re in the 1st 300 people. This should not be a problem, as I was a lat entry last year and still received the 30 bucks a person ticket. The ticket includes 2 buffet style meals (lunch and dinner), admission to the park, a parking voucher, and all the soda/water you can drink for the entire day. This price is the same as what the PBA paid for the Defender’s game last year. I was thinking this would be an event for us this year. AS some of you are PBA brass and some are Union brass, I wanted to get your thoughts on splitting the cost of this event for all those who want to attend. I would keep with past practice in stating that the UNION/PBA will pay for members and immediate family only. Others may attend, but the cost of non-members would be reimbursed by the individual ( So we can buy all the tickets together). Also all the money goes directly for tickets, meaning the only group making money is the park.
The date is Wednesday July 22, 2009 from 11am to 8PM.
If you couldn’t figure it out I think it’s well worth it and I think we get more for our money than we did for the baseball game last year!!! Let me know I want to put out a sign up list by the end of May so I can get our tickets set aside early.
