On 12-09-06, the Kiel Police Department held it’s first annual Shop with a Cop day with 12 of our local children.  After meeting at Wal-Mart in Chilton, the 12 kids teamed up with a uniformed officer and were able to spend $100 on whatever they wanted for Christmas.  In addition to purchasing items for themselves, all of the children also purchased gifts for various family members. 

After shopping, a party was held at the Kiel Community Center.  All of the gifts purchased were wrapped.  After that was completed, the kids were treated to pizza, cake, cookies, and soda.  Santa showed up as well and the kids were able to ask Santa for the things they forgot to buy. 

In addition to Kiel Police Department officers, members of the Calumet County Sheriff’s Department and the Chilton Police Department also shopped with the kids.
