Thirteen Parkland High School golfers joined nine South Whitehall Police officers for a round of golf Sept. 17 at The Club at Twin Lakes, North Whitehall Township.

According to Police Chief Glen Dorney, the event showed the students, that indeed, police officers are people just like them.

Dorney said the golfing was a way to “bond with the community.”
