National Crime Prevention Month

October is National Crime Prevention Month and we ask everyone to play a role in keeping our homes, schools and communities safe.
Check out our Home Security Checklist and Home Security Booklet for tips and suggestions to keep your homes and personal items safe. Go to www.gerrishpolice.org/safety-tips/home-security-tips/ and you can also visit our Identity Theft page at www.gerrishpolice.org/identity-theft/ for facts and identity theft protection tips.
If you leave your residence for the winter or go out of town on vacation, take advantage of our Unoccupied Property Checks. Go to our website at www.gerrishpolice.org/house-check/ and complete the request form online. Officers will check your property while you are away. This form can also be submitted through our Mobile Application under the "House Check Request" icon on the home screen.
REMEMBER...Unless you have specific dates on file, house check forms need to be completed each time you go away. They do not stay on file from year to year and are purged from our system in May of each year once most people have returned for the summer season. This ensures that we have the most accurate contact information for every request.

Fall Road Clean Up

Last Thursday afternoon (September 17,2026) 13 volunteers, including Gerrish Police Officers, cleaned up both sides of County Road 100 from the top of Pioneer Hill to Hillsdale Drive collecting 10 bags of trash and a large garbage can.
We pick up trash in May and September as part of Roscommon County's Adopt-A-Road Program to help keep our community clean.
Volunteers enjoyed pizza and pop/water provided by ACT NOW after the clean-up was done.
Thank you to all who took the time to assist with this project!
If you are interested in volunteering for our road clean up efforts, please contact Julie at 989-821-5207 Ext. 291 to add your name to the volunteer list. Our next date will be scheduled in May 2027.

National Child Passenger Safety Week (Sept. 20-26, 2026)
This is a National awareness week about educating parents and caregivers about the importance of protecting children during every stage of development - from car seats to booster seats to proper seat belt use.
Congratulations to our own Officer Jeremy Meyer who completed his CPST training and joins the team of over 41,000 nationally certified Child Passenger Safety Technicians (CPST) to be a community advocate and resource.
Officer Meyer can be reached at the Gerrish Township PD to assist with child safety seat checks, car seat installations and hands-on assistance with the proper use of any style of child safety seats.

The rain held off yesterday for our Annual Law Enforcement Torch Run. This was a 5K run/bicycle/walk event and all funds raised go to Special Olympics Michigan.
We had 40 participants representing Gerrish Township Police Department, Roscommon County Sheriff's Office, Michigan DNR Law Enforcement Division, Kirtland Regional Police Academy, Roscommon County Prosecutor's Office, Northern Michigan Children's Assessment Center, and community residents. They all ran/walked/biked together with our two Special Olympic athletes during Flame of Hope week to raise awareness for individuals with intellectual disabilities. Together, we inspired change and made a difference raising $1,980.00!
We would like to thank all the participants, donors, CERT volunteers, Roscommon Area Public Schools Transportation Department, Gerrish Twp. Fire Department, and "The Store" - South Higgins Lake State Park for providing hot dogs, chips and bottled water for everyone after the event.
Mark your calendars for next year's Gerrish Township Torch Run scheduled for September 14, 2027.
