Troop B Citizens Complete Community Alliance Program
Captain James E. Wilt, commanding officer of Troop B, Macon, MO, announces on November 13, 2017, 20 Troop B area residents completed a Community Alliance Program offered by the Missouri State Highway Patrol, Troop B Headquarters. This was the 13th program of its type conducted at Troop B since 2001. The Community Alliance Program is a unique opportunity for citizens to gain insight and understanding of the training and many duties of the Missouri State Highway Patrol. It also offers an opportunity to meet and interact with several members and employees of the Patrol. During the program, the participants met at the Troop B Headquarters in Macon, MO, for 10 consecutive Monday evenings and received classroom and practical instruction on various topics including firearms, traffic stops, traffic crash and criminal investigations, polygraph examinations, and driving while intoxicated enforcement.
The program culminated with an awards ceremony, which was held at and sponsored by the Macon Comfort Inn. During the awards ceremony, participants received a plaque for their participation. Participants of the 2017 Troop B Community Alliance Program were: Donnie and Linda Cox, of Macon, MO; Amanda Halley, of Macon, MO; Carrie Harland, of Macon, MO; Korina Hurley, of Macon, MO; Chuck Lea, of Macon, MO; Jim Lowe, of Palmyra, MO; Debbie Moffitt, of Macon, MO; Connie Petre, of Macon, MO; Kevin and Angie Prenger, of Macon, MO; Amelia Prenger, of Macon, MO; Joseph Schaffer of Palmyra, MO; Lueann Schisler, of Macon, MO; Laura Skinner, of Jacksonville, MO; Ron and Jan Watts of Macon, MO; Sidney Wheelan, of Madison, MO; Crystal White, of Moberly, MO; and Deb Yearns, of Anabel, MO.
The only 100 percent survivable traffic crash is the one that never happens. Make sure everyone in the vehicle is properly restrained in a seat belt or child restraint. Every day as we travel on Missouri’s roadways, we trust that every driver on the road is going to obey the speed limit, pay attention, and drive sober.
“Don’t Violate The Trust.”
