Shopping For Santa Cops

 

Seven Walmart baskets full of toys for Santa Cops

The Broomfield Rotary Club had a busy couple of days. On Wednesday, several members enjoyed wings and beer at Wonderland Brewing Company while attending the Guys Who Give quarterly meeting. They expressed their gratitude for the generous grant to the Imagination Library and took part in the voting to award this quarter's grant to Anchor House. Broomfield Rotary is well-acquainted with Anchor House, having awarded them $3,800 last year.

The next evening, an army of Rotary Club members went shopping to assist the Broomfield PD in selecting and purchasing gifts for the Santa Cops project recipients. The shopping spree was so intense that the register locked up after just 20 minutes.
