Omaha Area Emerald Society

 

The Omaha Area Emerald Society was chartered in January 1997 and its members are of Irish heritage and involved in Public Safety on the local, state, and federal level. We also have many wonderful associate members who although they are not employed in public safety, are Irish and support our objectives. The Omaha Area Emerald Society is a proud member of:

"National Conference of Law Enforcement Emerald Societies"

The Omaha Area Emerald Society participates every year in the annual St. Patrick’s Day parade in downtown Omaha.  The past two years, we have had 60-80 members and vehicles from many public safety organizations in and around Omaha participate in the parade.  Our members consist of municipal police officers, deputy sheriffs, corrections officers, parole/probation officers, firefighters, and other members of the criminal justice/public safety professions.

We also provide scholarships to members and their dependents every year.  A minimum of three $250 scholarships are offered.

We also host fundraising Irish music concerts periodically. 

Membership dues are $20 per year.
