GTPD's Child Registration System Available at Gloucester Township Day Saturday

Parents who become separated from their children on Gloucester Township Day will be able to locate them quickly by participating in a new registration system, Gloucester Township Police announced Friday morning.

The Special Event Child Registration System is free.

While at Gloucester Township Day, parents can fill a registration form and receive two matching bracelets, one for the parent and one for the child.

In the event a lost child is located during the event, the parent’s information and cell phone number can be accessed quickly from the bracelet ID number.

Parents can respond to the Gloucester Township Police Command Center to be reunited with their child.

At the end of the day, parents remove and dispose of the bracelet. No checkout with police is needed. 

Police also recommend that parents take a picture of the child with their cell phone when they arrive so that they have an accurate description of what their child is wearing.

Additionally, if you are attending Gloucester Township Day, you may sign up for our special event alert. This event specific alert allows you to receive important event information such as a lost child alert.
