CASS COUNTY (WKZO AM/FM) — Police Agencies all over west Michigan have begun Shop with a Cop campaigns, working with local retailers and charitable groups to help underprivileged kids have a happier Christmas.
The added plus is it gives these children a different perspective on law enforcement officers.
Saturday it was the turn for children from Cassopolis and Edwardsburg, who were chosen for a trip to the Wal-Mart in Niles for a shopping spree.
Officers from several agencies pitched in to help.
Sheriff Behnke would like to thank all who donated to the program this year, including the following:Calvin Twp Shop With A Cop, Wallace’s Towing, Darin Boyles Properties, Lori Bower State Farm, Spicey’s Restaurant, the staff/owners of The Twirl restaurant, Subway at Wal-Mart and Wal-Mart.
