Hello all! May is quickly approaching and we all know what that means....National police week 👮🏻‍♀️🚔🇺🇸 May 9th-15th!! I love to honor our men and women in blue and show them how much they are appreciated and how much we appreciate what they do on a daily basis. I would like to reach out and ask anyone who wants to help me show their support for our officers and dispatchers, I will be collecting goodies to deliver to Moraine PD that week. I will be buying and collecting...bottled water, gatorades, juices, pop, cookies, chips, trail mix, granola bars, crackers, gum, donuts 😉😂 etc. Anything that is sealed and easy to grab on the go. This will be my 1st year doing this for our officers and dispatchers but won't be the last! So please reach out to me on here, FB messenger or text if you would like to help. I will be more than happy to meet you or come pick up whatever you would like to donate. Thank you so much for your continued support of our heroes! 👮🏼‍♂️🚔💙 ... See MoreSee Less
