Dozens of kids participated in Grays Harbor County’s Shop with a Cop event Saturday, which began with breakfast at Aberdeen High School. After they were fed, the kids got into law enforcement vehicles with officers from across the county and led a noisy procession toward Walmart, with lights flashing and sirens blaring the whole way. At Walmart each child was given a $100 gift card they could spend on whatever they liked. There was also a station where kids could get their gifts wrapped up before leaving the store.
