Background Information:
The Miesville Lions Club is interested in donating $2,000 to Hastings Police Department to assist our
Police Reserve Officers with High Visibility Jackets. The Reserve Officers are an integral part of events
that occur in our community every year. Most of these events require traffic direction, often in adverse
weather conditions. These jackets will assist the Reserve Officers with additional safety measures. High
Visibility Jackets make it easier for vehicles to see and follow direction from our Reserve Officers.
