With the holiday season just around the corner, the Upper Valley Police Departments & Sheriff's Office once again are preparing for its annual SHOP WITH A COP charity event.

SHOP WITH A COP was developed to help make the holidays brighter for disadvantaged families in Rexburg and surrounding area. Since its beginning, the program has helped hundreds of children.

This year's event will include police officers, members of the Mayor’s Youth Advisory Board, and their special young guests who head off to McDonalds for breakfast, and then K-mart for a morning of shopping, gift wrapping, and fun.

On behalf of the Upper Valley Police Departments, Sheriff's Office, Mayor’s Youth Advisory Board, and City of Rexburg, thank you for your support. Your generosity is what makes this program possible!

Please donate to SHOP WITH A COP at the Police Department on Main Street or K-Mart on 2nd East.

If you know of anyone that you think could benefit from this event, please submit the name of the person to the Police Station.

This Year's Event will take place on December 13. The Rexburg McDonald's will be providing breakfast. K-Mart will be helping out the present buying. The Mayor's Youth Advisory Board will be wrapping the presents.
