On March 18, 2008 Troopers Otabio Cepeda, Adam Hoffman, Brian Poulos , Joe Zawol, Troop L PBA Alternate Delegate Frank Santini, Mike Pellegrino, Brendon Dillon, Sgt.
Scott Crawford, Sgt. Michael Granville and Inv. Larry Hemmerich shaved their heads for the St. Baldrick’s Foundation
to raise money for children’s cancer research. People raise money to
support this foundation and it goes as far as shaving people's heads to show
support for those who undergo chemotherapy and lose their hair.
Volunteers who donate can either just donate money or go all out and shave
their head as well. This year we were able to raise $2,600, and donations
are still coming in under our team name New York State Troopers. This
year the team members attended the St Baldrick's Day
which was held on March 8, 2008 at Napper Tandy's Pub
in Smithtown on Long Island.
