Press release<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The New York State Sheriffs\u2019 Institute will begin its annual Honorary Membership drive in Genesee County within the next 10 days according to Sheriff William A. Sheron, Jr.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The New York State Sheriffs\u2019 Institute was established in 1979. It is a not-for-profit corporation, tax-exempt organization, and contributions to the Institute are tax deductible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While the Sheriff\u2019s Office is a unit of county government, many of the concerns of Sheriffs and other law enforcement agencies are best addressed on a statewide level. The Sheriffs\u2019 Institute provides centralized training programs and services for all Sheriffs\u2019 Offices, where those programs and services would be unavailable or impractical on a single county basis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The flagship program of the Sheriffs\u2019 Institute is the Sheriffs\u2019 Summer Camp for economically challenged children. The Sheriffs\u2019 Camp, in its 45th year of operation, is located on Keuka Lake and 840 children from across New York State attend each summer. The Sheriffs\u2019 Institute pays the entire cost of the camp stay and transportation. Most children attending would not otherwise have an opportunity for vacation travel or a summer camp experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Sheriffs\u2019 Camp program combines summer recreation with activities designed to teach an understanding of, and respect for, our laws and the men and women who enforce them. The strong camper-to-counselor ratio allows for individual attention with an emphasis on the development of self-esteem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIn these difficult economic times we cannot forget our youth who will not have the opportunity for a summer camp experience or a summer vacation,\u201d Sheriff William A. Sheron, Jr. said. \u201cBy becoming an honorary member, you are supporting the Sheriffs\u2019 Summer Camp for economically disadvantaged children.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition, the Sheriffs\u2019 Institute operates a scholarship program that provides one scholarship to each of New York State\u2019s Community College\u2019s Criminal Justice Programs. This program is designed to help attract the best and the brightest to the criminal justice vocation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For more information about the Sheriffs\u2019 Summer Camp and other Sheriffs\u2019 Institute Programs, visit www.sheriffsinstitute.org or simply Google \u201cSheriffs\u2019 Institute kids\u201d and it will be your first option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Financial support for many of the Sheriffs\u2019 Institute programs comes from Honorary Membership dues. Invitations for Honorary Membership are extended on a non-partisan basis, and the invitees are selected at random. Any persons interested in supporting the efforts of the New York State Sheriffs\u2019 Institute by becoming an Honorary Member should contact the Sheriff if they do not receive an invitation in the mail, or visit our web site at www.sheriffsinstitute.org to download an application.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All donations made to the New York State Sheriffs\u2019 Institute are tax deductible. In addition, Sheriffs\u2019 Institute is registered with the New York State Attorney General\u2019s Charities Bureau.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
