Welcome To The Rockland County Shields
President's Message: October 2024
On Sunday, October 20th, Rockland's law enforcement family remembered the tragic events of the Brinks Robbery at a memorial service on Mountainview Avenue in Nyack.
In 1981, Sergeant Ed O'Grady, Officer Waverly Brown, and Brinks guard Peter Paige were killed during a robbery.
Members of the Black Liberation Army and Weather Underground robbed a Brinks armored truck of $1.6 million in Nanuet.
The Shields will be hosting Candidates Night. Anyone on the ballot (as reported by the Rockland County Board of Elections) has been invited to this event.
Turnout is usually very good and this is our opportunity to meet those running for office.
Tuesday, November 5th is Election Day. Don’t forget to vote!! If you voted early, outstanding!
There is a Proposition (#1) on the ballot in New York State. Look up Proposition #1.
View its details from several sources.
Different groups have very different opinions about its meaning and purpose.
The Fall Super 50-50 tickets have been sent out.
The Super 50-50 drawing will be at the General Membership Meeting on November 27, 2024, at the Haverstraw Elks.
We thank everyone who already sent in their Super 50-50 tickets. We appreciate your support.
See you at the Elks.
Fraternally,
Ed Weireter
A good plan violently executed now is better than a perfect plan executed next week.
