We recognize that many eager and willing officers are selflessly committed to doing whatever it takes to protect the general public, even it means sacrificing their own lives.
We would like to pay tribute to those officers with a special release beer called “Heart of the Lion,” recently brewed in honor of fallen [Prince William County police] Officer Ashely Guindon.
This event is geared toward people of all ages because our local police protects people of all ages. We hope to make this an annual event where the funds raised will go to support injured or exceptionally deserving officers.
This year, injured[Prince William County police] Officers, David McKeown and Jesse Hempen, will be in attendance and recognized for their service during this inaugural event.
We are hosting our first ever fundraiser called “For Those That Wear the Blue – We Salute You” on Sunday, June 26 from 2-6 p.m.! We’ve invited the entire community to come together to show our support and appreciation for the work that is being done everyday by our police department.
