Shop with a cop set for Sunday
Just like most nonprofits, the holiday charity known as Shop With A Cop is facing tough challenges this year.
As of Wednesday, 126 children were scheduled to go on shopping sprees this weekend with law enforcement officers, according to Alicia Monroe, coordinator of the Volunteer Action Center. That is a slight decrease from last year, she said.
Sponsored by the Fraternal Order of Police (FOP) Lodge #89, Shop With A Cop begins at 12:30 p.m. Sunday inside the west side Walmart, 2025 Merchant Mile.
All participants will be required to wear masks, as well as comply with any other regulations or precautions the store management requests, lodge president Alan Trisler said.

A proposed motion at Lichfield District Council on the performance of local health organisations has been branded “disgraceful”.
Cllr Alan White made his comments at a meeting of the local authority last night (15th December).

The motion had been put forward by Labour representative Cllr Colin Ball stating:
“This council deplores the very poor performance of the two Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCGs) covering our district, with South East Staffordshire CCG, recorded as ‘Inadequate’ for the past three years, and East Staffordshire CCG performing slightly better, moving from ‘Good’ to ‘Requires Improvement’ over the last year, and resolves to write to our two local MPs, asking them what they personally have done over that period to push for improvements and what else they will do personally in the future.
