6 - October 28, 2011 | Pelham - Windham News Cub Scouts Visit Pelham Police Department


heard the importance of physical fitness to the police profession and to one’s own personal health. The boys were directed to glance up to a picture of a giant size check Pelham had received from the DEA several years ago. This check, given for Pelham’s assistance in cracking a major drug case, paid for the gym equipment. Officer DeRoche went on to tell the boys, “Good things come from catching the bad guys!” A small sea of nodding heads concurred.

Wilkerson Pack 610’s young Tigers and Wolves came loaded with anticipation, excitement and questions they visited and toured the Pelham Police Department Officers David DeRoche and Brian Barbato were the boys’ tour guides. First stop, the Communications Center, the heart of the police station. As the officers explained the job of the dispatcher, young fascinated wide eyed faces darted from monitor to monitor as camera angles displayed


areas both inside and outside of the station. Then it was out the door and down the hall to our next stop, the gym. Our guides in blue explained the contents of the locked doors that our group passed each. The evidence room, the munitions room, and Pelham Prosecutor’s office generated a lot of questions and interest. When we reached our destination, it took remarkable self-restraint for our boys not to climb on to exercise machines or lift the free weights. Here the boys


Next the jail cells, the padded cells, evidence lockers, finger printing, the holding area, and what the cubs will tell you was the highlight of the trip, getting to sit inside a police car! The officers demonstrated how cruiser light sequence and sirens mean they are responding to certain calls. Each cruiser is equipped with state of the art laptop with GPS system that allow all on duty officers keep in touch with dispatch and each other at all times. Once the final siren sounded and the cruiser parked, it was on to the community room for the boys and officers. This was the final opportunity for our cubs to ask their lingering questions and have a photo opportunity with our guides. To earn their belt loop in good manners, the boys shook hands with each officer, introduced himself and his Akela, (parent) and thanked them

for the tour. As the boys departed the station they were given a “Just Say no to Drugs” backpack containing a Frisbee and water bottle. One of our cubs summed up their visit rather well … ”Wow, we got to see the cool station and we get a present, too.” Next month the Tigers and Wolves will be visiting the Pelham Fire Department and PERC. Ron Hannon, PERC’s Manager, in response to an inquiry by Pack 610, has developed a video program and is coordinating a visit to the recycling center. Set for November 5 after PERC is closed, Ron is highlighting how the recycling


benefits Pelham and our environment. In conjunction, Cub master David Wilkerson will be demonstrating vermiculture and the benefits of not throwing those egg shells, coffee grounds, veggie and fruit peels, etc., out in the trash! To learn more about Pack 610 visit
