In the spring of 2013 the “Choose Not to Lose†program was introduced to the public. The program is a long-term commitment to area youth from community partners who provide support through donations and volunteer work. “Choose Not to Lose” stresses the importance of youth making good choices.
Originally, seven new Jeep Wranglers were provided by Audubon Chrysler Center for use by the Vanderburgh County Sheriff’s Office and the Evansville Police Department. The Jeeps will now be replaced by seven new Dodge Ram pick-up trucks, once again provided by Audubon Chrysler Center. Each truck has been artfully covered to reflect the high school the vehicle represents. The artwork was provided by Mr. Terry Moore and the  vinyl wraps by Mills Graphics.
The trucks will be on display at Eastland Mall until Saturday, February 29, 2015. The vehicles will then be assigned to School Resource Deputies and Officers for their use.

I hope that they get better gas mileage than the jeeps did. I like the idea of the project but I do object to the tax payers paying for the gas and such so these only a few people get to drive these vehicles for person use. Some of these guys live way out in Warrick County’s Northern area and have a long way to work and back home every day.
