Operation Christmas Joy

On December 2, 2014 MHPS Patrol team 4 responded to a report of presents stolen from Medicine Hat Santa Claus fund donation bins at Canadian Tire. Although a suspect was arrested and charged in this matter, the toys were never recovered.  As it was so close to Christmas, and they knew the toys were intended for kids who could use a little extra joy in their lives, the team decided that instead of having a Christmas party this year they will put the money towards buying some toys to donate.  On Monday Dec 15 they headed down to Canadian Tire to do a little shopping and had a blast picking out their favorite toys to donate in the hopes of putting a smile on some kids’ faces on Christmas morning.
