SHOP WITH A COP COMING
• Employees of the Lewis County Sheriff’s Office are looking for donations and for kids for its annual Shop with a Cop event. The program is an opportunity for underprivileged children who would benefit from positive interaction with police officers to go Christmas shopping for gifts for themselves and their family. The deadline of today to submit an application on behalf of a child to take part has been extended to Nov. 27. Chief Civil Deputy Stacy Brown says the program is aimed towards children who live in unincorporated areas of Lewis County, as the police departments in Centralia and Chehalis conduct events for their residents. Brown says also their program is funded by employees and they are appreciative of any and all donations and financial assistance. Checks, cash or money orders can be sent to: Lewis County Sheriff’s Office, Attn: Chief Stacy Brown, 345 W. Main St, Chehalis, WA 98532.
