PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE...
We have a lot of exciting and fun upcoming events! We will be in the PV Days Parade on May 8th, at the YCCA Home Show registering voters on May 22nd, and registering voters again at the WOOFStock Pet Adoption Event on June 12th. CLICK ON MY NAME BELOW TO SEND ME AN EMAIL IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO VOLUNTEER for any of the upcoming events! We have a pick up truck for the parade so you can ride or walk. We will provide instructions on how to register voters....we just need helpers to share the shifts! The more the merrier!
We will also be serving as one of the host clubs for the AzFRW State Meeting June 24-26 being held at the Prescott Resort. Be sure you register up to attend! For Active members, up to our budgeted amount, the Club will reimburse a portion of your early bird registration fee. As hosting club, we'll be helping with the silent auction room, registration, selling raffle tickets and more as help is needed.

Last, but not least, take a few minutes to read thru the newsletter below...it's HOW we keep you informed on coming events!

Hope to see you on May 4th, May 8th, May 22nd and more!

MAY PROGRAM
Prescott Valley
Chief of Police
Steve Roser

Prescott Valley Police Chief Steven Roser joined the Department in November, 2019. The Chief joined the City of Phoenix Police Department as a patrol officer in 1990 after serving 4 years in the United States Air Force. He worked his way through the ranks within the Phoenix Police Department in various assignments to include Investigations, Drug Enforcement Bureau, Professional Standards Bureau, Training Academy, and as the Acting Commander of the Crime Laboratory. Most recently, he served as Shift Commander for the Downtown Operation Bureau. 
He holds a Master’s Degree in Administration from Northern Arizona University, a Bachelor of Science in Business Management from Grand Canyon University, and is a graduate of the FBI National Academy.
Chief Roser is a dedicated family man, spending his spare time with his wife of 30 years and three adult children. He passion since 2000 was coaching his children and others in youth soccer, football, lacrosse,

baseball and softball, teaching them leadership and how to become good citizens.
Though it has been a “major change” to move from a big city to a smaller community, Chief Roser is eager to use his experience to help lead Prescott Valley’s Police Department into the future.
“I envision that Prescott Valley will continue to grow. The community needs someone that is ready for growth and the experiences that come along with that. It is difficult for me to find anything negative about the Prescott Valley Police Department or the community of Prescott Valley."

MAY CARING FOR AMERICA PROJECT
We will be supporting the Prescott Valley Police Foundation. The Foundation provides items for our Police Department that are not budgeted for. Some examples have been rifle/shotgun racks for inside units (versus having them in vehicle trunks), flashlights, acquiring canine officers & needed canine supplies as well as various training opportunities. Gifts to the Foundation are tax deductible and we will have forms and envelopes at the meeting. The Foundation is also responsible for the "Thank the Blue" event!
CLUB AWARDS...by separate email to follow, we need you to ballpark your hours spent volunteering for Republican candidates last year. We submit our hours to AzFRW who collects them statewide to help our State earn top honors at the NFRW Convention!!
Our PVRW Scholarship to a Bradshaw Mtn HS Senior was mentioned in the Prescott Valley Tribune. Scholarship Committee is looking forward to evaluating the applicants and the recipient will join us at our June 1st meeting.
3rd VP Romona reminds everyone that when ordering on Amazon Prime you may designate a local charity or school, a super easy way to make a difference in our community. She will have a "Games Night" Raffle Basket for our May meeting.
