The annual Chillicothe Kiwanis Club Shop with a Cop on Saturday, Dec. 19, under different circumstances this year because of the COVID-19 pandemic. With the help of the Chillicothe teachers the children completed a Wish List and Walmart was kind enough to gather the items for the children so Kiwanis, Chillicothe Police Officers, Missouri State Highway Patrol, Chillicothe Local 990 Steel Works, Wire Rope staff, and Walmart employees could hand out the gifts to the children as they drove up to receive their items. There were lots of smiles and very happy children.
Fifty-Seven children and their families were served by this event.
