Matthew Weng
- The Pitman Police Department recently concluded a hiring process for a part-time Secretary. Director Weng and Chief McAteer would like to thank all those who have assisted in the process.
- The Pitman Police Department continues to send officers to the 2-Day ICAT/Able training program as required. ICAT is a training program that provides first responding police officers with the tools, skills, and options they need to successfully and safely defuse a range of critical incidents.
- Cpl. Ken Decker recently attended the weeklong ICAT Train-the-Trainer course. This certification will allow Cpl. Decker to assist the Gloucester County Prosecutor’s Office with the training throughout South Jersey. In addition, Cpl. Decker can now bring his “expertise” to the department for enhanced training in our Use of Force and Critical Incident response.

Clean Communities:
Since the last meeting have had two cleanup projects in the Borough. The Women's Club cleaned up litter around Sunset Auditorium and Shertel Park including 7 bags of trash and 12 recycling items totaling around 25 pounds. With tennis season upon us it is great to have visiting teams seeing a nice clean court & park! Many of the women came with their own grabbers and gloves and ALL of them came to work!
​
The Knights of Columbus, with cleaners aged 9 to 90, cleaned up the Alcyon Woods Disc Golf Course and removed upwards of 50 lbs of broken glass from the course path as well as 2-3 large trash bags of miscellaneous trash. While they were on the course they had players from Moorestown commenting on how much they love the course and many players would throw some trash into the bags! The timing of this project was perfect as there is a tournament coming through this weekend.
