Keeping Delaware’s families and communities safe has been one of the most important goals of my Administration, so I was very pleased when we unveiled the Delaware State Police’s new Bell 412 helicopter on April 9. Each day, the brave members of our Delaware State Police log thousands of miles coming to the aid of our residents as they work tirelessly to ensure our safety and security. This aircraft is a great addition to our arsenal of lifesaving and emergency equipment.

Last week, I was honored to receive the Wallace M. Johnson Community Service Award from the New Castle County Chamber of Commerce. The award recognized my work to reduce cancer incidence and mortality and increase prevention and screening efforts in the First State. I firmly believe this honor needs to be shared by everyone who has helped me change our approach to cancer treatment and prevention in the state of Delaware.

Last week, I had the great privilege of attending the 2008 Delaware Cancer Consortium retreat in Dover. This was the first event of its kind for this group, and I think it was great success. Not only did the presenters reflect on their successes in the fight against cancer in the First State, but they also discussed their action plans for the future.
