Retailer Makes Donation, Kicks Off Local Operation Chill™ Youth Program
WRIGHTSTOWN, N.J. – New Jersey State Police want local residents to visit the troopers’ “home away from home” at the Wrightstown 7-Eleven® store and held an open house Thursday, July 15, to encourage them to do so.
The convenience retailer set up the Wrightstown Police Community Network Center (PCNC), a signature community program, to improve communications with residents and help reduce crime. The 7-Eleven PCNC allows the small community to have police presence because the town does not have a designated police force and is patrolled by state troopers.
7-Eleven also will officially launch its Operation Chill program at the event by providing 3,000 free Slurpee coupons as an incentive for positive behavior among young people. Each year, the convenience chain donates approximately 1 million coupons to U.S. law enforcement agencies, that in turn use them to “ticket” children and teens they see exhibiting positive behavior, such as obeying school crossing rules, using proper bicycle safety gear, deterring crime or participating in community or volunteer activities.
