Pikesville Patch

Dan Pahl and Erica Hempfield are members of the Baltimore County Police Explorers Program for the Pikesville precinct. On Thursday they helped police and owners of Fleet Feet Sports load up an estimated 1000 pounds of old shoes that will bring in funds for the program. The shoes will bring in a certain amount of money per pound, and that money will fund the Explorers' trip to Ft. Colllins CO. this summer.
