The Coon Rapids Police Association has cooked up a community engagement event that's a little off the beaten path for law enforcement: a Bags Tournament. Part sporting event, part charity drive, the tournament aims to shore up funds for the association's 'Shop With A Cop' program, a cause that pairs officers with local youth for holiday shopping sprees intended to foster positive interactions and good cheer, as per the Coon Rapids Police Department.
Details of the event were light as a whisper on the breeze, but according to the Coon Rapids Police Department Facebook page, the jamboree is set to take place soon, and would-be participants are urged to visit the official page at www.coonrapidsmnpa.org to learn more and sign up.
