Show Kids-cops holiday treat experience of lifetime I The world's got to be a better place when 85 kids can I breakfast and shop for Christmas presents with their local I policemen. "Shop with the Cop" day, sponsored by the good I people at K mart was a holiday season success. I It was the experience of a lifetime for 20 Davis County I children who participated in the Dec. 8 event in Woods Cross, along with Salt Lake-area children and 62 policemen. From now on they'll see policeman in a different light helpers r I instead of arresters. f For these children at least, the image of a policeman now J has a much more positive meaning. They need to remember I that the law enforcement officer is there for them. I More than one cop was a little teary eyed after helping the I kids to what they wanted from the aisles of K mart and letting J them meet with Santa Claus. Each child was allotted $20 by the store chain, which ex- I pended $880,000 on the day, hosting 250,000 boys and girls I nationwide. I Christmas is truly special. Too bad it doesn't last all year long. |
