Each day our uniformed protectors are involved in dangerous confrontations and life threatening situations here in Union County. Our uniformed protectors perform impeccably to protect the public interest. Therefore, every Spring, individuals that have performed heroic acts above and beyond the call of duty are selected to receive The Two Hundred Club Of Union County Valor Award. Since 1968, we have honored more than 500 police officers, firefighters and State Troopers, each having risked their own lives to serve the public interest.
The Valor Awards Luncheon also provides an opportunity to take a few moments to reflect on the lives of the uniformed protectors who have died in the line of duty in the previous year. It is with profound respect that we honor the brave men and women who have paid the ultimate price. Each year, Valor Award recipients are chosen in part on the recommendations of the chiefs of police and firefighters in the 21 municpalties here in Union County. They are submitted to our Valor Awards committee for review and final selection. In the Spring of each year our Annual Spring Valor Award Luncheon is held with hundreds of attendees. It is here that these heroes are presented with the Valor Award
