The Support Group is made up of all Ocean Ridge Officers and supplemented by a number of volunteer officers.  The group meets once a month for training on various topics such as Human Diversity, Blood Borne Pathogens, CPR, defibrillator use and various law enforcement techniques.

 

	During Tropical Storm Fay in August 2008, the members of the Support Group were available to help with traffic control, clearing trees and debris from the roadways, checking down power lines, moving stranded cars, cleaning storm drains and responding to alarm calls. Many of them worked through the night to ensure that A1A was passable although trees continued to fall and through traffic had to be stopped for certain periods of time.
Fallen trees branches and coconuts were a major concern during the storm.
The new Town Hall and Police Complex has a small gym to promote the health and wellness of the police and Town employees.
Every police car is equipped with laptops.
