CRIMESTOPPERS.NS.CA 9 The Colchester Board of Crime Stoppers has participated in a number of activities since last year. Our focus has been promoting the Crime Stoppers program in the community, focusing on combating crime and keeping our communities safe. The Colchester Board consists of twelve active members and Deputy Chief Robert Hearn from Truro Police Service. Our board works diligently to ensure that we utilize our resources to operate effectively to resolve and reduce crime in our communities. Thus far, 2020 has been a challenging year in our area. Our scheduled public awareness events have been cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. We look forward to resuming these as soon as we are able. Colchester County is also recovering from an unimaginable horrendous crime which claimed the lives of many residents. The shock, horror and sorrow resonated across the country. To everyone who lost a loved one, or was injured, our thoughts are with you. We would like to thank the community for their support. We look forward to serving you in the future. DPMDIFTUFS Amanda Morrisey Board Chair, Colchester Since our last annual report, the Cumberland Board participated in a Race Against Drugs event at a local elementary school. The board held two meetings in 2020 before the COVID-19 pandemic put a hold on gatherings. With the restrictions this year, we were unable to participate in our usual activities such as: Police Week, Seniors’ Expos, and a parade. With these activities, we would have been able to distribute materials to promote the TIPS number. We encourage anyone who is interested in or wants to join this group, to contact their local police. The board wishes to thank all individuals, groups, businesses, municipalities and towns in Cumberland that have supported our various activities in past years. Stay safe and hope to see our board up and running another year. DVNCFSMBOE Alfred King Board Chair, Cumberland OPWB!TDPUJB CRIME STOPPERS CPBSE!PG!EJSFDUPST!
