WBGC Members Shop for Gifts During the Holidays

Our Heroes & Helpers or “Shop with a Cop” event is sponsored by Target of Watertown and The Watertown Police Department to give our young Members the chance to go shopping for gifts. Many of the kids have taken the liberty to not just shop for themselves, but also find gifts for family members and friends. Target donates gift cards for this event and the Police Department brings pizza to fuel the shopping sprees led by police offers throughout Target.

The kids love building a relationship with our local Police Department and sees them as community role models who go above and beyond to make a direct impact by supporting kids in the community.

Stay tuned for more information coming soon!
