(Note: This program is on hold in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic; we hope to start it again in 2022.)
Organization & implementation
The Police Movie Club was organized and implemented during the summer of 1974. It is a summer program sponsored by the Beaufort Police Department.
Each program begins with a prayer and the Pledge of Allegiance. A movie then follows. Volunteer mentors come and talk with the kids on issues that affect them.
Support
The Beaufort Police Department is very happy for the support that has been provided to the Police Movie Club in the past. In 2019, more than 200 children enrolled in the program.
Open to all
Our program is open to all children between the ages of 5 and 12, and is free of charge. Children of military families stationed in the area have always participated in the Movie Club.
Safety information
Safety information will be provided each Saturday morning of the program. Professionals from the field will present lectures on water safety, fire prevention, bicycle safety, and to help children say no to drugs, alcohol, and violence.
Donations
The Police Movie Club is a part of the lives of area children. All donations are used for direct operation of the Movie Club, and all donations are appreciated.
