Officer John McCarthy reports that he has several Police Academies are being held, and will be scheduled for next spring. He will also be holding a class at the Beverly Council on Aging and at Beverly High School. Please go to the Photo Album for pictures of our Field Day. He also offered these programs to Endicott College and Landmark School as well. The next Citizen's Police Academy is scheduled for early next year. If you are interested in attending this program, you may contact Officer John McCarthy for further details. The Citizen's Police Academy Alumni Association will meet on January 21, 2010, and May 21, 2010.

A discussion was held regarding the beginning of a Boy Scouts of America Police Explorer Post. Ofc. John McCarthy reports that a post will be in its initial phase of development by our February meeting. He said that he recently attended the Danvers Police Explorer Post and got some ideas and assistance as to how to utilize our post.

We had a discussion regarding a recent study that was conducted at the high school and junior high school. The study was focused on issues that influence behavior and learning. It was decided that a committee would be organized and would analyze these studies as they impact Policing and Law enforcement in Beverly. Further information will be forthcoming.
Following a discussion on this topic, it was suggested that the people from the School Department involved with this project be invited to our next meeting so we can ascertain how to be of best assistance to the school department in relation to this study.

There was a review of the accomplishments for the year of 2009, and in review they were:

The completion of 2 service brochures for use by the Police Department when on patrol and are available at the Police Station.
The completion of several Citizen's Police Academies.
Discussions of issues as they occurred; such as marijuana law changes, fraud presentation, domestic violence presentation, high school lock-downs, license plate reader, bike rodeos, and MLEC traffic award.
The development and implementation of a comprehensive noise ordinance/motor cycle check points during the warmer months.
A recognition cookout for the Police Department.
The development and production of several BEVCAM television shows.

The year of 2010 appears to be a busy one as we look ahead. We will be examining Youth Risk Behaviors and developing programs and/or suggestions for curriculum for elementary,
junior and high school teens. Some of this data may even affect college students as well.

We will endeavor to do more telecasts in a partnership with BEVCAM TV.

A Police Explorer Post is being considered and the application to the Boy Scouts is currently under review.

Activities in Volunteers in Policing are forth coming, as well as the creation of a Police Department Foundation.

For the sake of redundancy, several issues that are currently tabled remain posted on our website.

Welcome to new recipients of this little blog, we also encourage your input here as well.

If you have anything to add or would like to share any ideas you are welcome to attend our next meeting or you can email me at charlieblute@yahoo.com or contact the Public Information Department at the Police Department. Please note that the website for the Beverly Police Department is now www.beverlypd.org.
