A Message from
Ernest Thompson
President
Amityville P.B.A

On behalf of the officers and retired members of the Amityville Police Benevolent Association, I would like to thank all of the generous friends of the Amityville P.B.A. who make everything we do during the year a huge success. I'd like to thank each and every one of you for your continued generosity and support of our association.
During the past year, the Amityville P.B.A. has helped the community in many different ways. We are very proud of how we offer assistance to those less fortunate than us by  providing turkey dinners and gift baskets during the holiday season. 
We have sponsored teams in the Amityville Little League and The Amityville Soccer League, and have members who have served as coaches in both of these leagues.
The Amityville P.B.A. also continues to support the Amityville School's sports teams in any way we can. We also participate in "Career Day" at  Amityville High School. A Police Officer shares his / her professional experiences with students offering the possibility of a Police career as a future option for interested students. This is always well received.
The Annual Thomas Smith, Sr. Ragamuffin Parade is always a success. Scores of children in costume parade down Broadway to the Park Avenue Elementary School. The children each receive a "trick or treat" bag of goodies and "tips on how to have a safe and fun filled Halloween". This parade was the idea of Officer Smith in 1954 and, since his death, it has been carried on in his memory. The tradition for the parade is carried on to this day by Tom's son P.O. John Smith.
Our members participate in the Annual Rotary Club Apple Festival, where we sponsor a "Kid's Pics" booth where photos are taken of children and placed in a folder along with descriptive information about the child, and given to the parents in the event of a lost or missing child. We urge parents to participate in this program. 
The Amityville P.B.A. sponsors the "Chief Bill Kay Scholarship" for deserving students who wish to pursue studies in criminal justice.
