Lodge 100 donation to Berrien County Sheriff Mounted Division

On November 9th representatives from the Fraternal Order of Police – Blossomland Lodge 100
were on hand at the Sheriff’s Office to present a generous $2,000 donation to the Berrien
County Sheriff’s Mounted Division.

The FOP Lodge 100 has just completed their months-long fundraising efforts, which were
geared towards supporting the Sheriff’s Mounted Division, as well as the Berrien County Law
Enforcement Memorial Monument Fund.

The Berrien County Law Enforcement Memorial is located in Lake Bluff Park, in Saint Joseph,
and commemorates the sacrifice of 20 law enforcement officers who lost their lives in the line-
of-duty. The Berrien County Mounted Division is an all-volunteer unit of the Sheriff’s Office,
consisting of sworn deputies who serve the people of Berrien County. The Mounted Division
assists the Sheriff’s Office with the preservation of law and order, community events, and
emergency operations such as search and rescue.

With more than 367,000 members in more than 2,200 lodges The National Fraternal Order of
Police is the world's largest organization of sworn law enforcement officers. The Fraternal
Order of Police is a voice for local, county, state and federal law enforcement officers who
protect and serve unselfishly on a daily basis.

The Sheriff’s Office would like to extend their thanks to the businesses and organizations who
helped support the FOP 100 fundraising efforts, as well as the Blossomland FOP 100, for their
continued efforts to support law-enforcement in Berrien County, and the memory of our fallen
officers.
