Dear Dave,
Through a recent conversation with one of your club members I learned that there
could be a possibility that the Eagles Club Charitable Gambling Fund may have monies
to contribute towards area Public Safety. I wanted to take a moment to simply make
you aware of a serious need of the Oak Park Heights Police Department and if you feel
motivated to do so would appreciate consideration by your Club in the event of future
donations.
Due to an ever increasing crime rate in the area and a significant increase in
the 1993 budget, I was not able to acquire some much needed equipment. Our investigative
vehicles are presently using radio equipment that is considered to be "prehistoric"
and I believe is limiting our capabilities in some ways. I have looked in to the
purchase of two radio units at a cost of $1,499.97 per unit. Due to numerous other
major budget items (weapons, squad cars, and three new officers) I was unable to
acquire the funds needed for these radios. The total cost is just pennies under
$3,000.00 for the two radios. If your organization is interested in providing these
funds either for the full cost or partial, please contact me. I appreciate your time
and effort on this matter.
incerely,
Lindy Swanson
Chief of Police

Dear Dave,
I would like to express a most sincere thank you for the donation which was recently
received from Stillwater Eagles 94. The donated $1,500.00 will provide our depart-
ment investigator with an "upgraded" radio for his vehicle. I am sorry that I was
not in the office yesterday when you came to our station and dropped off the check.
Again, on behalf of the City of Oak Park Heights Police Department,.thank you. I will
advise the Oak Park Heights City Council and the community of your very generous
donation and support at the next scheduled meeting on April 12, 1993.
a` ncerely,
