Our 911 Heroes
Throughout the month of April, Public Service Announcements, in the form of commercials will run (on all TV channels) to educate the public about 9-1-1.
A contest was held by the two of the premier public safety organizations: APCO (Association of Public Safety Communication Officals) and NENA (National Emergency Number Association), soliciting Telecommunicators for quotes on "What it means to be a Telecommunicator".
Two of Deerfield's finest were selected as winners and will appear in the commercials.
Joe's (far left) quote: "NO matter what the problem, big or small, I'm a trained professional to answer your call"
Brian's (2nd from left) quote: "I helped catch a bank robber".
