Chief William H. Morrow Memorial Fund

          Few people are more revered in Somers Point than the late Bill Morrow.  From the 1930's through the mid-1960's, Bill served our city as its long-time Chief of Police and later as our elected representative on the Atlantic County Board of Supervisors.  Yet his most lasting contribution was to the youth of the city.  He founded the Boys and Girls Club and guided it until the day he died.  He encouraged the participation of every child irrespective of age, size, or athletic ability. And most importantly he emphasized a set of values that, then like now, are fundamental to success in sports, in school, and in life.  Even today "The Chief", as he was affectionately known to children and adults alike, remains a towering figure in the lives of Somers Point youth, and in the annals of the city itself. The Somers Point beach is permanently named in his honor.

          The Chief William H. Morrow Memorial Fund committee is attempting to raise money.  This money will be used to fund the scholarship program in Bill's name, serving as a living legacy among a new generation of Somers Point high school graduates.  Funds raised will also be used to send deserving children to summer camp.  

2002 information forthcoming.
