Templeton Police would like to formally recognize Officer Caleb Matson, who was recently selected as the First Responder of the Year by the Central Mass EMS Corporation.

Officer Matson was recognized for his extraordinary medical care provided to a seriously injured party involved in a late-night motor vehicle accident. Through his quick recognition of critical injuries, calm actions under pressure, and immediate life-saving treatment, Officer Matson made a tremendous difference during a critical moment.

It is our belief that without Officer Matson’s rapid assessment and decisive care, a life may have been lost.

We are extremely proud of Officer Matson and congratulate him on this well-deserved recognition. His actions reflect the highest standards of professionalism, dedication, and service to our community.

The Templeton Police Department would like to recognize the Narragansett Regional High School National Honor Society for their hard work, kindness, and dedication in putting together care packages for the department this year.
The thoughtfulness and support shown by these students is greatly appreciated by our officers and serves as a great example of community spirit and volunteerism. We thank them for taking the time to give back to those who serve the community every day and wish them continued success in all of their future endeavors.
