Conceal and Carry Class Offered by our Greenfield Police Deptartment

Appreciation and thanks for the conceal and carry class that GFPD is offering that I was able to attend.

Extremely impressed with our Greenfield Police Department.

While I can't speak for all that with me, of several that I spoke at the end of the 6-hour class, everyone had seemed to have the same favorable (understatement of the day) impression of the whole experience.

I am so impressed with the men and women that make up our police department β€” AMAZING people. It was a great day and a boat load of information, so good in fact that I wish everyone could have sat in and heard all of what they taught us. Very reassured to know that they are doing what they can to give people a sense of the gravity of responsibility that comes with carrying a weapon. While, not real impressed with my own response in the simulated exercise (of which I will not tell you about so as not spoil the experience for you) I came away with an awe and powerful respect for what our police department prepares to face each & everyday.

So to Steve, Ray, Dave, Scott and the others that were there helping today, I feel like I owe you a HUGE THANK YOU and loads and loads of appreciation. Also, to all of our police men and women, I will continue to Pray for you and compel others to do the same. Thanks to all of you for your service and the great responsibilities that you shoulder on behalf of our great city.
