Shop with Cops

November Luncheon ft. Saint Paul Chief of Police, Todd Axtell As the holiday's approach, we are excited to announce the Chamber's longstanding partnership with Saint Paul Police Departments Shop with Cop program. We are asking for donations from our members to help support Saint Paul Police Departments efforts to give back to the youngest members of our communities. What is Shop w/ Cops? The purpose of the event is to foster positive relationships between youth and officers. Each child is given money to spend on the their immediate family. Participants are assigned to a police officer to shop with them. After shopping, the children will share a meal with their officer. Volunteers are a vital component to the success of the Shop with Cops. Coordination of the program is done by volunteers, which allows all financial support to directly benefit the participants of the program. Join us for this special luncheon event as we hear from Saint Paul Police Chief Todd Axtell and his commitment to the Shop with Cops program!  *More information on volunteering & donation opportunities can be found here: http://www.shopwithcops.com/ Location: Como Park Zoo and Conservatory 1225 Estabrook Drive St. Paul, MN, 55103 Date/Time Information: Wednesday, November 20 11:30 a.m.-1 p.m. Fees/Admission: $35 members $50 non-members ***A portion of your registration fee benefits the Shop with Cops program RSVP
