beautifully mixes architecturally designed landscaping with shopping, dining and entertainment venues, ‘PGA
Commons’ has brought a new style of living to Palm Beach Gardens. The center reflects the European
lifestyle, the quintessential urban village while deliver ing the grandeur of the ultimate gathering place.
The superbly maintained property at ‘PGA Commons’ features a wide array of specialty stores and services.
This includes an exciting collection of upscale boutiques, fine art galleries, renowned jewelry stores along with
a well defined selection of restaurants to please everyone's palate,
For ‘PGA Commons’ residents and guests, the nearly one mile span of nationally renowned PGA Boulevard
has become a very popular gathering place for many from sunrise to sunset.
‘PGA Commons’ has the feeling of a park with exceptionally tasteful greenery of trees, shrubs and flowers that
mixes superbly with the area. Its award winning outdoor sculptures, chess/checker tables and its eclectic mix
of chic restaurants and shops are widely popular.
My family and friends have personally enjoyed from its beginning the unique lifestyle that PGA Commons
offers.

Dear Palm Beach Gardens C ommittee Members,
Citizen Police Academies (CPAs) have become one of the most beneficial programs
developed under the Community Based Policing philosophy. They are conducted
across America to educate citizens on the basics of the l aw enforcement profession and
to bring private citizens closer to the police.
To kick off a new Palm Beach Gardens Citizen Police Academy for 2009 we are
making the program available to a select few “recruits” by invitation only. By doing
so, special h ands -on demonstrations and informative sessions can be conducted in a
manner which will give a very personal look into the inner workings of our police
department. Because of the special nature of each session the CPA is sure to be very
interesting, excit ing and even a little fun.
The format for the academy will be a three hour class that meets in the Palm Beach
Gardens Police Headquarters on six consecutive Wednesday evenings from 6:00 -9:00
pm starting September 23rd and running through October 28 , 2009 . A graduation
dinner will be held on Thursday, November 5 th for recruits who complete the course,
their guests, participating instructors and other invited guests.
The CPA is funded by The Palm Beach Gardens Police Foundation . T here is however,
a $25.00 fee for class materials and a class polo shirt. Recruits are required to commit
to attend all s ix se ssions to ensure the Academy’s success.
Your committee is invited to nominate two members to attend the Palm Beach Gardens
Citizen Police Academy in S eptember 2009. Please complete the attached interest
form for each of your members who wish to attend and return by July 15, 2009.
Enrollment will be on a first -come, first served basis and is limited to only 25 recruits.
If you have questions, please contact me as soon as possible as we expect openings to
fill up quickly.
Very truly yours,
Karen Cobb Stephen J. Stepp
