<p>Everyone knows this is no easy task, and can't express their thanks enough for his&nbsp;hard work.</p>
<p>Joe was a Nominee for the Village of Schaumburg &nbsp;(Individual Category) "Volunteer of the Year," and immediately left the luncheon to assist at ILEETA!&nbsp;&nbsp; He also worked the Recycling event the weekend of April 21st, and this is just a snapshot of what Joe's contributions are to our organization.</p>

<p>The folks at the Schaumburg Police Department support CPAAAS in so many ways, 365 days&nbsp;each year,&nbsp; that it just doesn't take a special Holiday for us to say thank you&nbsp;to recognize all they do for us.</p>
<p>So this week, we wanted to make sure we take the time to thank all the folks - those Business Professionals at every desk,&nbsp; phone, investigation resource,&nbsp;communications, and customer service spot that we don't see or hear, who do the behind the scenes work at the Schaumburg Police Department in Administration that make us the strong successful Village we have grown to know, love, and rely upon.</p>
<p>Thank you for all you do!&nbsp; :)</p>
