Between 2002-16 (14 years) the crime rate in Riviera Beach has decreased nearly 53 percent. However, with the challenges facing modern law enforcement today, the need to stay current with training, technology and equipment is paramount. It is also costly – a financial burden that most cities can’t afford. Unfortunately, it’s a problem that Police Departments across the country are encountering. Major Spencer Rozier Foundation RBPD The Riviera Beach Police Foundation was established to help RBPD obtain the extra tools that enable Representative the Department to meet the changing needs of fighting crime. The City’s budgeting process covers basic law enforcement, and the RBP Foundation helps supplement this funding. Foundation funds are also used by RBPD in support of various community outreach initiatives. The RBP Foundation is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) corporation. Donations made to the Foundation are tax deductible. Through your donations, the Foundation gives everyone an opportunity to play a greater role in working with RBPD to improve public safety. All donations count. No donation is too large or too small. For information send an email to [email protected]. RBPD Wins Trophy For Beating RBFR In Wawa Contest Wawa Riviera Beach had its grand opening on March 23rd of this year. As part of their grand opening ceremonies, new Wawa stores hold a Hoagies for Heroes Contest between the local Police and Fire Departments. This contest is judged on the number of hoagies prepared and the complexity of the hoagies. The Wawa Corporation gives both participating departments a $1,000 check; in addition, the winner receives a trophy. The faceoff between RBPD and RBFR was intense, including stare-downs and an occa- sional piece of lettuce being thrown. The competition was tough, but the trophy and bragging rights went to RBPD.

Williams* "There's a reason. But I don't think anybody ought to be surprised, folks. I really don't think anybody ought to be surprised. This is the hip-hop culture on parade. This is gang behavior on parade minus the guns. That's what the culture of the NBA has become." - Rush Limbaugh1 "Do you really want to go there? Do I have to? .... I think it's fair to say that the NBA was the first sport that was widely viewed as a black sport. And whatever the numbers ultimately are for the other sports, the NBA will always be treated a certain way because of that. Our players are so visible that if they have Afros or cornrows or tattoos- white or black-our consumers pick it up. So, I think there are al- ways some elements of race involved that affect judgments about the NBA." - NBA Commissioner David Stern2 * B.A. in History & Religion, Columbia University, 2002, J.D., Columbia Law School, 2005.
