Ridgewood NJ, Members of Ridgewood P.B.A. Local 20 in conjunction with the Chiefs Office will be sporting PINK ball caps during the month of October to support breast cancer awareness. “We decided it was time to join the fight” said Peter Youngberg,

PBA president. “When a citizen sees a police officer wearing a pink hat out there it should grab their attention. We hope that it helps raise some awareness throughout the Village. We are also committing $500.00 to the National Breast Cancer Foundation”.

“Unfortunately most of us have family or know someone impacted by breast cancer, so as a department we stand together with the PBA in this effort. In support of breast cancer awareness we have authorized the wearing of Pink hats by department members”.Chief John Ward.
