Local law enforcement brought smiles to the faces of several children this Saturday.
The Dade County Sheriff’s Office shared information about the “special operation” Shopping With Kids.
“Officers, members, and supporters of the Fraternal Order of Police (Lodge #086) spent the morning at the Wal-Mart in Lookout Valley Christmas shopping,” the Sheriff’s Office Facebook post said.
The Sheriff’s Office thanked Carlton Stallings, President of FOP Lodge #086 for heading this project each year. “It is a privilege to witness so many come together to make sure these kids leave with a few extra smiles and a great experience with police officers.”
