FROM THE DESK OF THE PRESIDENT
CHIEF EDWARD M . KERR SPRING LAKE POLICE DEPARTMENT
The New Jersey Police Chief Magazine | November 2023
It was great to see the support of our large number of NJSACOP members attending and participating at the recent IACP Annual Conference . It was a great professional development and networking opportunity , and San Diego was a great venue for this important conference . I know that our members and our guests greatly enjoyed the networking reception that the Association co-hosted .
As we all know , even though our members and the agencies they lead face many daunting challenges , this “ Thanksgiving ” month is a particularly appropriate time for us to think about all of the things for which we should be thankful . Each of us has our own personal list – family , friends , good health , and all of the other blessings that come with life in our great country . Additionally , we should never lose sight of the fact that , tough times or not , we are privileged to be a part of a noble and important profession , which allows us to make a difference in the lives of our neighbors and our communities .
I want to wish all of our members and the police officers serving our communities a heartfelt “ thank you ” for all that you do each day .
I look forward to seeing you at our next monthly Police Chiefs Briefing on November 2 nd at the Tinton Falls / Eatontown Doubletree Hotel .
