The specific and primary mission of the Etna PAL is to promote a constructive relationship between law enforcement officers, young people, and citizens of the community to develop the young people into responsible and mature adults/citizens. PAL programs are designed to develop activities which act as a deterrent to delinquent behavior among young people and keep them occupied with constructive organized activities. To achieve these objectives Etna Police Department/Etna PAL will initiate and sponsor amateur athletic and non-athletic programs and provide an opportunity for young people and law enforcement personnel to develop a mutually satisfying non-adversarial relationship through participation in PAL activities including athletics, educational presentations, tours, and training classes. This will be a drug, gang, and bully free program.
Etna Police Activities League (PAL) is a non-profit organization that has been providing preventative and early intervention services to our youth, ages 5-18, for over 24 years. Established in January of 2001 and based out of the community of Scott Valley, with youth from multiple areas of our county coming into the valley to participate in our programs. Etna PAL provides various activities including athletics, educational presentations, tours, and training classes. Our programs include a swim team, volleyball, soccer, flag football, basketball, wrestling, Explorers, Hunters Safety, and mentoring programs (Harmony with Horses and Keepin it REAL). We also sponsor and promote local activities to bring the community together which include holiday gatherings, parades, festivals, and many other events.
Etna PAL partners closely with the Etna Police Department to implement all our programs. Our local police chief supports our efforts in all ways and encourages his officers involvement in all our programs.
