For twenty seven years, Respect for Law Camp has been an annual summer event for area youth ages 11-14. Butler County Chiefs of Police Association created this camp with a desire to show children the many positive aspects of Law Enforcement and to teach them about respect, spirit, leadership, teamwork and kindness. For three days and two nights, Respect For Law Camp provides the campers with an experience unlike any other.  The camp counselors are passionate public safety personnel who choose to spend a weekend teaching and mentoring the youth.  In today’s society, this opportunity is invaluable, both for the officers and campers.  Campers get to  rappel from a fire tower, engage in a mock traffic stop, target shoot in a FBI pellet gun course, watch a K-9 demonstration, clear a building in a simulated SWAT exercise, participate in a high ropes challenge course, and many, many other exciting events.    

The youth at this camp walk away with many lessons learned, a better sense of self-esteem and encouragement to make the right choices for the rest of their lives. As an outcome of their participation, some graduates have become Law Enforcement officers, Firefighters, EMS providers, and Military personnel.  It’s a transformative, pivotal experience, much more than a typical “camp.”  For nearly every camper, it’s the experience of a lifetime.  

Each year we are faced with the task of funding our camp.  You can imagine the cost of an event of this scale is high, but I cannot think of a better investment than making a positive impact on our youth. We need your help. We are looking for donations to help support our camp. Monetary support for camper scholarships is also needed.  Our goal is to insure that Respect for Law Camp continues for many years.  We pride ourselves on never having to turn a child away for financial reasons. 

Respect for Law Camp is a 501 (c)(3) organization registered under the Butler County Chief’s of Police as a Nonprofit with the IRS. Donations can be deducted under current tax codes (see your tax adviser or the IRS for more information).
