Kids attend NYS Sheriff's camp Sheriff Richard Pisciotti said four children from Wayne County are attending the NYS Sheriffs Association Summer Camp. The Sheriffs Camp is designed to provide a solid recreational program combined with the development of a sense of good citizenship. The Summer Camp, which is located near Penn Yan, is supported by the Sheriffs Assn. Honorary Members, through their contributions and annual dues. This year the camp will accommodate more than 800 boys and girls. The primary objective is to create positive interaction between the kids attending camp experiences during the first 28 summer camps that the kids develop a renewed respect and understanding for the men and women who enforce the laws. The deputies become their friends and in some cases substitute parents for a week. Children observe special exhibits and demonstrations presented by Sheriffs Offices from across the state. Included in these presentations are DARE presentations, boat and bike safety programs, law enforcement equipment and technical demonstrations, pistol and archery competitions for accuracy and even a talent show just for fun. All children will be warded a diploma for their participation in a program of Good Citizenship and Law Enforcement Studies.
