The picnic is held for the children who are safeties for their district schools as a way for the association to show their appreciation. This event is a day filled with games and competitions in which all the children compete. The children were entertained by a Police K9&nbsp;demonstration with Ofc Jones and his partner K9 partner&nbsp;Jax from Aston Township Police along with&nbsp;an appearance by the&nbsp;Phillie Phanatic. The new Ridley&nbsp; Twp Police SUV, Pennsylvania Mounted Police,&nbsp;and a&nbsp;Boeing fire truck were also there for the children to view. Lunch and music were provided also by the association.
Fortunately there were only a few minor scraps and no injuries that needed ER treatment.
The members of Milmont Fire Company want to thank the Ridley Police Association for their continued and long standing support.
