Our PAL youth had one of their most thrilling days heading south to welcome all of the excitement at @xtremeactionpark! The day was filed with jumping on the trampolines, games in the arcade, and the ropes course. It was an unforgettable day of high-flying “XTREME” excitement!

Our PAL site in Lake Worth Beach assisted at the City of Lake Worth Beach’s “Back to School Bash.” Our youth spent the day volunteering, handing out hundreds of backpacks & school supplies to school aged children of the community. We can’t believe summer is almost over!

Feel Good Friday Story! 💖 One of our deputies made a huge difference in the life of a Lake Worth Beach family by surprising them with a car. For nearly a year, this dedicated mom and her kids walked everywhere, including 6 miles to catch the school bus. Despite the challenges, she ensured her kids stayed active in our Police Athletic League @Pbcpal. This week, we witnessed an emotional and unforgettable moment when we surprised this single mom with their new car. We couldn't be prouder of our generous team for making this happen. #FridayMotivation #PBSO
