Funds Raised at the First Annual West Chester Bartenders’ Ball Awarded to Fraternal Order of Police

As reported yesterday in The Daily Local, the West Chester Fraternal Order of Police recently received a check for $10,000, the amount raised by a group of restaurateurs to benefit the police union.

The funds were raised in late January at the Bartender’s Ball, organized with help from more than 30 local restaurants and with the expectations that the money would be used for purposes not funded through the borough police department’s budget. The funds were mostly raised through ticket sales and on-site auctions.

Now, West Chester Police Det. Andrew MacFarlane said he and Police Chief Scott Bohn are mulling exactly how to put that money to good use. Click here for the full story.
