On Saturday March 22, 2025, the Badge & Shield Club, Inc. held its 46th Annual Retirement and Awards Dinner. On behalf of the Committee and the Board of Directors I would like to thank everyone who worked so hard to make it a success. We had over 140 in attendance. Sheriff John Garcia was our featured speaker, and numerous awards were given out to Erie County Sheriff Deputies, support staff, two youth recipients, and a NY State Trooper during the ceremony. The event could not have been a success without the community support we receive including that from our major sponsors: Pinnacle Travel Staffing, Martin Rastelli, Proprietor; Ellicott Development, the Buffalo Bills, The DJ Channell, North Park Florist, Minuteman Press, Crown Trophy, and the wonderful full-service staff at The Columns Banquet facility. Please watch for and support this annual event to take place in March of 2026.
