Joe Moor, the new Police Chief of Bristol Township, talked about the purpose of the county-wide events.

“What I’m trying to achieve is good community relations with the citizens of Bristol Borough and a positive interaction with the children of the borough,” he said.

Solebury Police Sgt. Kevin Edwards also talked about the importance of events like these.

“I think it’s important that the community actually comes out and gets to know the officers outside of you when they have a problem.”
