Natrona County Shop With A Cop Program Opens Applications Through November Thirteenth

It's the most wonderful time of the year! Well, not quite yet, but it's getting close. I know it's not Halloween yet, but you have to start planning for Christmas, especially if you're a Natrona County Law Enforcement Agency and you're taking kids shopping.

The annual Shop with a Cop Program is back this year, and applications have opened.

This year's shopping days are December 12 & 13 (btw, 12/13 is Taylor Swift's birthday), and if your family fits the bill for being able to participate, you need to get your application in by November 13.

Our Departments strive to make this a positive experience for the children. In partnership with both Walmart Stores in Casper, children in need are able to purchase gifts for Christmas, including ones for themselves as well as other family members. Paper applications will be accepted at all Natrona County Law Enforcement Agencies and participating agencies to include the Wyoming Game and Fish Department and Wyoming Highway Patrol.

The application process is really simple, and if you have more than one qualifying child, you only need to fill out one application. You can find the applications on the Natrona County website by clicking here. 

To be eligible:

• Children must be 3-12 years old to participate.
• Family resides in Natrona County.
• Child must be able to separate from families while shopping.
• Child must be present on the shopping day in order to receive a gift card.
• Families of children selected to participate in this year’s program will be notified by phone during the week of December 1st. Please answer the call or return it promptly to confirm your child’s participation and secure their place in the program, as we will have a waitlist.
