I’m forwarding an important invitation from the Wentzville Fire Protection District. Please consider taking your children or grandchildren. I hope to see you there!
Representative Chuck Gatschenberger
The Wentzville Fire Protection District in conjunction with the Wentzville Masonic Lodge 46 will be hosting a child identification program on July 10th from 10:00am to 3:00pm at fire station 1 on Pearce Blvd in Wentzville. I have attached some forms for the program that can be filled out prior to the event to save time. Also attached [below] is a press release on the program.
This is a very in depth identification program for our children. All of the information gathered will remain the sole possession of the parent or guardian of the child. No information is kept or stored by the event sponsors. If you have children or know someone who does, this is a must, and it’s FREE
Wentzville, MO--- On Saturday, July 10th, 2010 the Wentzville Fire Protection District will be co-sponsoring a Missouri Child Identification Program (MoCHIP) event with the local Wentzville Masonic Lodge #46. The event will be held at Station #1 of the Wentzville Fire Protection District from 10:00 am until 3:00 pm. The fire station is located at 209 West Pearce Blvd. in Wentzville, Missouri.
MoCHIP has been deemed “one of the most comprehensive child recovery and identification programs in the nation,” by The National Center for Exploited and Missing Children. This is a FREE Child ID program. Since its inception in August of 2005, the MoCHIP program has seen and identified over 100,000 children making it one of the most successful and thorough of the “CHIP” programs. Collectively the CHIP programs have processed more than 1,200,000 children throughout the United States.
As previously mentioned, the cost of this comprehensive identification program is
FREE. It is open to all children up to the age of eighteen. The program provides parents with a CD containing: Physical, personal and medical information, Emergency and medical contacts and Digital photographs and fingerprints. Also provided with the CD are: Laminated ID cards and a Dental impression wafer with DNA sample. Also, no information on the child is kept by the MoCHIP program, all of it goes to the parents.
For more information on the MoCHIP program as well as other links to child safety web-sites go to www.mochip.org.
The Wentzville Fire District covers 88 square miles of Western St. Charles County and includes the cities of Wentzville, Foristell, Flint Hill, and Josephville; as well as large portions of Lake St. Louis, Dardenne Prairie and O’Fallon.
