Old Bridge Local 127 stays on target for Police Unity Tour This spring, several Old Bridge Local 127 members are train- ing to join the caravan of cycling law enforcement officers that make up the Police Unity Tour. But before the pedaling could commence, Local 127 kicked off the preparations by throwing a hatchet. On March 3, dozens of Local 127 members, family and friends gathered at the Bury the Hatchet Club in Matawan for the Local’s inaugural axe-throwing tournament. Members enjoyed an afternoon of competitive fun and games while rais- ing money to support Old Bridge’s first Police Unity Tour team, which will ride to Washington, D.C., for Police Week in May. www.njcopsmagazine.com ■ MARCH 2019 69
