The Palmyra Public Safety Department would like to recognize the Cold Spring Riders and Palmyra Mud Slingers! β˜€οΈπŸ›»

Despite the heat, these groups took to the roadways in their UTVs and collected donations for Palmyra Public Safety. They then joined us at the recent Rockin’ the Park event, sponsored by the Palmyra Lions Club at Village Park, where they generously presented the funds they raised.

Found items, Palmyra Village Beach:

A rolling cooler and contents along with other items were found near the playground area at the Palmyra Village Beach. If you left items behind at the beach and think we might have them, items can be claimed by coming to the station and describing the items.

Numerous kids toys are also in the rolling cooler and we would really like to get these items back to their rightful owner.
