4th ANNUAL RALLY FOR OUR FIRST RESPONDERS
Sussex County, Delaware June 1, 2025
It was a wonderful day to gather numerous displays of emergency responder equipment, great food trucks, live music, a variety of local vendors, and a car show.
A big shout out to Kyle Shaffer for her hard work and dedication in organizing this event every year!
One of the highlights for me this year, was the opportunity to meet 13-year-old DJ Daniel and present him with an East Hempfield Township Police Dept. patch (pictured above). DJ also received honors from a wide variety of Delaware police agencies on stage at the beginning of the event. This courageous young man, with a desire to become a police officer, continues a valiant fight against brain cancer. We should all provide our thoughts and prayers for him and his family.
Other experiences at this year’s rally follow.

DSP Helicopter
DSP SORT - “The Rook”: This specialized equipment is very versatile and useful in barricade/hostage incidents. It is crucial for protecting lives while the team is engaged in these high-risk operations.
