Two members from Pymosa Masonic Lodge 271, Mike Blevins and Donnie Drennan, came to City Hall in Atlantic, Tuesday, and cut the sleeves off Chief Dave Erickson’s uniform, in exchange for $100 and to get his pink patches for breast cancer awareness.  Officials say Mike Blevins turned around afterward and gave one of the sleeves to the Deputy City Clerk Ali Tupper, a breast cancer survivor.

Chief Erickson is challenging anyone in town to beat the $100 donation. to get HIS patches. Contact the Atlantic P-D at 243-3512 (during business hours), or stop-by to get your bid in today!

The patches can be purchased separately for $10 and are available for purchase at the Atlantic Police Department, Atlantic City Hall, and Atlantic Chamber of Commerce offices.
