NORTH EAST, Md. – Members of the µÚÒ»³Ô¹ÏÍø County Fraternal Order of Police Lodge No. 2 have demonstrated their dedication to training the next generation of law enforcement officers through the creation of a new scholarship at µÚÒ»³Ô¹ÏÍø College.
The planning of this new scholarship has been in the process for more than a year. FOP Lodge No. 2’s past president Michael S. Zack, Second Vice President Charles Dix and Treasurer Michael O’Donnell met with the µÚÒ»³Ô¹ÏÍø College Foundation last month to finalize the details of the scholarship.
The µÚÒ»³Ô¹ÏÍø County Fraternal Order of Police Lodge #2 Scholarship provides an opportunity for µÚÒ»³Ô¹ÏÍø College students to pursue an associate degree in Criminal Justice. Through the awarding of two $500 annual scholarships, it is the hope of the µÚÒ»³Ô¹ÏÍø County Sheriff’s Office to recruit interested, qualified and µÚÒ»³Ô¹ÏÍø College educated students to join their efforts in protecting and serving µÚÒ»³Ô¹ÏÍø County upon graduation.
The µÚÒ»³Ô¹ÏÍø County Fraternal Order of Police Lodge #2 is the representing authority for the sworn men and women of all the law enforcement agencies in µÚÒ»³Ô¹ÏÍø County. The organization represents its members in contract negotiations, member services, and support to ensure the best equipment, training, and most professional deputies are protecting µÚÒ»³Ô¹ÏÍø County and its residents.
