Sheriff Riley Announces Participation in Summer Camp Program \u2013 13 Local Kids and Deputy\u00a0Sheriff Attending<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

(Canastota) Thirteen Madison County children boarded a\u00a0charter bus Sunday afternoon on their way to the 2016 New\u00a0York State Sheriffs’ Association Institute’s Summer Camp,\u00a0located near Penn Yan on Keuka Lake. The Sheriffs’\u00a0Summer Camp provides a solid recreational program\u00a0combined with the development of a sense of good citizenship. This will mark the 39th year of the camp\u2019s\u00a0operation.<\/p>\n

This will mark the 39th year of the camp\u2019s\u00a0operation.<\/p>\n

The Sheriffs\u2019 Summer Camp, which is located near\u00a0Penn Yan in Yates County, is supported by the\u00a0Sheriffs\u2019 Association Institute\u2019s Honorary Members\u00a0through their contributions and annual dues. This year\u00a0the camp will accommodate over 900 deserving boys and girls from across New York State.\u201cThis is a great opportunity for our county youth and I personally thank Madison\u00a0County residents for donating and making this possible.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is a great opportunity for our county youth and I personally thank Madison\u00a0County residents for donating and making this possible,\u201d said Madison County Sheriff Allen Riley. “The Sheriffs\u2019 Summer Camp\u00a0Program is designed to provide a child who ordinarily would not have the chance, an opportunity to\u00a0go away during the summer.<\/p>\n

“The primary objective is to create\u00a0positive interaction between the kids attending camp and the Sheriffs and Deputy Sheriffs who\u00a0participate in the camp programs. We have found from experiences during the first 38 summer\u00a0camps that the kids develop a renewed respect and understanding for the men and women who\u00a0enforce the laws. The deputies become their friends and in some cases substitute parents for a\u00a0week.”<\/p>\n

Riley also announced that Madison County Deputy Sheriff\u00a0David Kroll will be at the camp throughout the week as a camp counselor, working with kids from all over New York state.<\/p>\n

This year, thirteen local kids are attending the Sheriff\u2019s Summer Camp; Caidance Crandall of\u00a0Erieville; Melody Cross-Barnes of Peterboro; Tristan Dawson of Cazenovia; Matilyn Hackett of\u00a0Oneida; Christian Hoch of Oneida; Joshua Evans of Oneida; Rebecca McClure of Canastota; Kierra\u00a0Shaughnessy of Canastota; Nicholas Crafton of Oneida; Joel Tifft of Morrisville; Jayden Webb of\u00a0Canastota, Cariena Hummell of Oneida and Bella Crafton of Oneida.<\/p>\n

Throughout the week-long stay, the children observe special exhibits and demonstrations presented\u00a0by Sheriffs\u2019 Offices from across the State. Included in these presentations are D.A.R.E.\u00a0presentations, boat and bike safety programs, law enforcement equipment and technical\u00a0demonstrations, archery competitions for accuracy and even a talent show just for fun. Upon\u00a0completion of their stay, all children will be awarded a diploma for their participation in a program\u00a0of \u201cGood Citizenship and Law Enforcement Studies.\u201d<\/p>\n

The children departed for camp Sunday, July 30, and will return from summer camp\u00a0Saturday, Aug. 6.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
