Lake in the Hills police host lunch for children

The Lake in the Hills Police Department will host its Lunch with a Cop program from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Fridays, Nov. 2 and 9.

The event will be held at the Lake in the Hills Police Department's Safety Educational Center, 1109 Crystal Lake Road.

Participants will enjoy a pizza lunch, a puppet show and safety tips.

The lunch, pizza and pop, will be served to the children and parents by members of the Lake in the Hills Police Department, who will then join their guests.

The entire program is free and is an excellent opportunity for young children to learn that police are their friends and people they should come to for help.

The program has been a tremendous success in the past. Call today to reserve your spot; spaces fill quickly.
