Press Release
Simsbury, CT December 5, 2012
The Simsbury Police Department is proud to host its third annual Heroes and Hounds Military
Working Dog Drive. This year we are proud to announce that the Simsbury Police Department
will be shipping over one hundred and twenty individual care packages to our men and women
actively serving our country overseas during the holiday season. Each care package contains
several items for the soldier and their K9 working partner. These packages will be transported to
Westover Air Force Base by the Simsbury Police Department where they will be shipped to our
soldiers in the Middle East.
This drive could not occur without the tremendous and generous support of the Town of
Simsbury residents, business owners and Town employees. We are glad to say that we also had
great support from many residents and businesses in surrounding communities, such as the
Windsor Pet Food Pantry, Fidelco, the Bass Family of Meriden, employees of CitiGroup
(Hartford), Horses and Hounds and a generous monetary donation from a resident of New Jersey.
The Department would like to invite members of the media to police headquarters on Friday
December 14, 2012 at 10:00 AM to help us honor and support our troops.
