Special thanks to all the cadets who took this year’s Thanks’4’Giving Turkey Plunge in Oakland on Nov. 27.
As a team we raised $7,300 for the New Jersey Special Olympics, which will enable athletes and their families to participate in Special Olympics games for free. The event was sponsored by The NJ Law Enforcement Torch Run for Special Olympics New Jersey. Participants took a frigid plunge and then enjoyed a buffet and party.
