Westport, CT – The Westport Youth Commission and Westport Police Department will host a friendly game of Capture-the-Flag for Westport Middle School students on Sunday, September 16 at 3:30 pm on Jesup Green.

Youth Services Program Director Kevin Godburn stated, “Modeled after the popular Dodge-A-Cop each November at the high school, this game brings our local middle school students together with some of Westport’s finest to get to know one another and build positive relationships outside of an enforcement setting. So grab a friend and head on down to the Green to see who’s got the most elusive flag capturing moves.”

Students can register at: captureacopwestport.eventbrite.com. A suggested donation will go toward the ALS Therapy Development Institute.  Please contact Youth Services Program Director, Kevin Godburn at 203-341-1155 or kgodburn@westportct.gov with any questions.
