A fundraiser to benefit the Branson Citizens Police Academy Alumni Association (BCPAAA) is set for May 25.
Members of the BCPAAA will be stationed in front of Petco on Branson Hills Parkway to share information on the upcoming Citizens Police Academy, set to begin in the fall, and accepting donations to benefit the Branson Police Department. All of the donations received will go directly to the support of the Branson Police Department for non-budgeted items.
The BCPAAA got its start in August of 2019. The organization is made up of graduates of the Branson Citizens Police Academy, a 12-week program that covers such topics as Patrol Procedures, Tactical Operations, K9, Special Investigations, DWI/Traffic Enforcement, Crime Scene Investigations, Dispatch, Administration and Judicial Process.
Instructors include members of the Branson Police Department and others who are very knowledgeable and present their information in an educational and entertaining manner. Graduates of the class are invited to join the Alumni Association. The purpose of the Alumni Association is to support the Branson Police Department and promote public support for the department.
Applications for the 2024 Branson Citizens Police Academy will be accepted beginning in June. For more information or to sign up, contact Officer Donathan at 417-337-8503 or by email ddonathan@branson.mo.gov.
The BCPAAA Fundraiser is set for Saturday, May 25, 2 to 4 p.m. at Petco at 993 Branson Hills Parkway. The BCPAAA is a 501(c)(3), so all donations are tax deductible.
