Warrington swears in two officers; state judge invited to administer oath as $250,000 camera grant is presented
Summary
Warrington Township held a badge‑pinning and oath ceremony for two newly hired officers and received a $250,000 grant for police body cameras. The presentation highlighted ongoing efforts to secure additional public‑safety funding.
Lieutenant Gottenberg led a swearing‑in ceremony for Officer Michael Roberts and Officer Megan Stewart, inviting Judge Stacy Wertman to administer the oaths and asking family members to participate in the badge and Bible ceremony. Gottenberg thanked the board and township manager for their support and described the officers’ training and local roots.
Representative Brian Monroe presented a $250,000 grant to the Warrington Township Police Department for body cameras, saying the funding reflects persistence by local leadership and department chiefs. “We were able to get this,” Monroe said, thanking staff and the chiefs for their advocacy; he also said he continues to press for funding for the township’s canine unit.
Supervisor and staff remarks during the ceremony stressed pride in local public safety hires and encouraged the new officers to ‘‘cherish every day’’ of public service. A photo and short reception followed the ceremony.
