PLEASE BEWARE OF SCAMMERS!

Fraud comes in many forms. Phone calls, emails, text messages, you name it. NEVER provide scammers your personal information. Do NOT agree to buy gift cards, place money into a bitcoin/crypto account, open a random digital document, etc.

Scammers will even try to scare you into thinking there is a warrant out for your arrest and that you need to give them money to post bail. Sometimes they even provide a name and badge number. DO NOT BELIEVE THEM!

It's always best to ignore, delete, and block these scammers. If you feel that something doesn't seem right, always file a police report.

Last weekend, veterans of the police department and an East Pikeland resident were interviewed and recognized for their service during America's 250th birthday. 🇺🇸

Ofc. Carroll, Ofc. Purkey, Ofc. McCole, and resident Bill Gromley each received awards for their service as appreciation for their dedication. Thank you Ofc. Purkey for leading the Pledge of Allegiance and thank you Supervisor Emily Gorge for reading the Declaration of Independence.

To those who were involved in community day, thank you for making this day special! We couldn't have done it without your support.

Last night, Officer Lewis had the pleasure of providing a tour of the police station to Kimberton Cub Scout Pack 170!

The cub scouts and their parent guardians learned about the equipment that our officers use on the job daily, as well as the ins and outs of the police station. They had the opportunity to ask questions to better understand how officers serve and protect their community firsthand. Each cub scout received an East Pikeland Junior Officer sticker for their participation. 🚓

*** #2 REMINDER ***

‼️ALL DOGS MUST BE LEASHED OUTSIDE OF THE DOG PARK‼️

Since the Ridge Road Dog Park opened within the last year, we have had several complaints about dogs running at large and numerous dog bite incidents.

This sign is posted by the parking lot at the dog park. We would kindly like to remind those who use the park to make sure that your furry friends are leashed, and under full control, while outside of the designated fenced dog area. Those who do not comply with this township ordinance can be cited for violating the ordinance.

Those who would like to review the ordinance can do so on the East Pikeland Township website. https://ecode360.com/42006978

Let's make a community effort to keep our park safe and welcome those who would like to use it.🐾
