HACKETTSTOWN, NJ — The Joan Knechel Cancer Center at Hackettstown Medical Center is expected to receive support from the Hackettstown Police Department, as part of the department's "Beards In Blue" initiative. During the month of November, participating Hackettstown Police officers plan to "put down their razors" said Sgt. Darren Tynan, a spokesperson for the department, to raise funds for the cancer center. "Our anti-shave campaign is meant to raise cancer awareness and encourage people to live healthy and get their regular medical checkups to detect issues that could lead to cancer," said Tynan in a news release on Wednesday. As part of their no shave campaign, the Hackettstown-Mansfield PBA Local 369 is donating to the Joan Knechel Cancer Center and invites the public to donate too at this link: https://tinyurl.com/beardsinblue.
