In the News - Melbourne Police Department Donates First Aid Kids

Both Melbourne PAL at Carver Park and the Grant Street Community Center Benefit from Donations by the Melbourne Police Department

Melbourne PAL at Carver Park and the Greater Melbourne Police Athletic League at the Grant Street Community Center received donations of First Aid kits from the Melbourne Police Department.  As children will be children, it is not uncommon for them to have their encounters with bumps and scrapes.  Both centers were in desperate need of the first aid kits and the Greater Melbourne Police Athletic League is grateful to the Melbourne Police Department for the donations.
