Southern Clarion Police Association. • Building bridges between people and police • Providing non-government funding for improved technology • Community supporting community policing.
SCPA is a group of concerned citizens dedicated to “direct from community funding” for support and technologies for the Southern Clarion Co. Regional Police Department that may be beyond the ability of our municipal governments to provide through tax dollars. Our 501(c)(3) status enables us to raise money and access grants that local governments cannot to help provide equipment that keeps our officers safe and allows them to provide critical services to the community.
Immediate fundraising goals are to fund an exciting new drone program that will assist our communities and other first responders, purchase upgraded equipment and provide scholarships to students pursuing higher education in police work. Over the last few years, with help from our donors, we awarded several $500 scholarships and we pay for loans on 2 police vehicles.
We have community fundraising events planned for the coming months: Annual “Cops an’ Bobbers” Kids Fishing Derby, on July 3, the 4th Annual Communities Festival and Car Show (formerly Cookie Days) in Rimersburg (Aug. 8-9) and a new Gun Bash later this year. We hold a monthly Pick 3 raffle, annual hoagies and candy sales, and a grill/freezer/ meat/food and gas cards raffle now in effect until June 8.
See any of the SCCRPD officers, SCPA members or visit our website www.SCPoliceAssociation.org or Facebook FB.com/SCPoliceAssociation for event dates/times etc.
Tax deductible donations can be dropped off at a Donation Location or at the Southern Clarion Co. Regional Police Department, or mailed to Southern Clarion Police Association, P.O. Box 1, New Bethlehem, PA 16242. For more information call 814-275-1180, 814-275-1718 or email [email protected].

The 10th annual Redbank Valley Days of Giving will be held on May 7, 8, 9th this year. Please see the flyer for more information on how to donate. A major focus this year is on applying more crushed limestone to refresh the trail surface.
Redbank Valley Trails Association, is an all-volunteer organization that does not receive regular government funding. We rely on public donations and grants to maintain and improve the 51-mile non-motorized, 4-season Redbank Valley Trails, from the Allegheny River to Brookville and the 9-mile Sligo Spur. We are raising funds to refresh the crushed limestone surface and proceeding as funding permits. We work to improve signage and parking areas and provide port-o-johns. We added a second kayak launch at Moore Road to provide a loop trip back to your vehicle, are adding historic markers (4 last year) and continue our constant maintenance, drainage and improvement efforts. Donations provide fuel, equipment and material to help volunteers improve and maintain the trails for the community to enjoy and benefit from the recreation, relaxation and fitness opportunities the trail presents. Tourism dollars from those who visit are helping new and existing local businesses grow. Donations can be made online via the website and can be used as memorial gifts or to name bridges, shelters, picnic tables and other amenities. Donations of time, equipment and materials are welcomed. Information: www.redbankvalleytrails.org/donations, [email protected]., FB, 814-275-1718, 419 Arch St., New Bethlehem, PA 16242.
