A THANK YOU NOTE: MAULDIN POLICE<br />

ACADEMY CAMP<br />

Dear Police Academy Camp,<br />

I wanted to share this with you all because we owe a huge thank you to all of you for<br />

the lessons and training taught at the <strong>Mauldin</strong> Police Academy Camp!<br />

Aiden Williams, who attended the camp two years ago, reacted quickly to a situation<br />

that could have resulted quite differently. After plugging in a lithium battery that powers<br />

an Airsoft gun, he heard a pop. The battery quickly after began shooting sparks and<br />

flames. He called 911 while rushing to get a small fire extinguisher from the garage<br />

and he was able to get the fire extinguished just before the Fire Department arrived.<br />

The <strong>Mauldin</strong> Fire Department commended him on his quick reaction! They asked<br />

where he learned that life skill... he responded, “From the <strong>Mauldin</strong> Police Academy<br />

Camp!”<br />

Wow! You may often wonder what these boys and girls take away after weeks of camp<br />

and this is a great example! Thank you all so much for your continued commitment to<br />

this camp! A true example of your training at work! It is more than greatly appreciated!<br />

Sincerely,<br />

Mandy and Michael Williams
