It was just [a public relations] activity that has become a yearly event.
It is a great opportunity for the children to see that police officers are just people, too. We get to have fun. The children get the opportunity to ask us questions that they may be afraid to ask at other times.
It allows officers to see that they do matter and are not just doing a job. Too much of this job is ugliness. As a police officer, you get the feeling ?Why am I doing this?? Well, when you get to spend time with a child and see how much they do look up to you, it?s a great feeling and reminds you that we, as police officers, have the honor of having the best job in the world.
