REMINDER: Cravens is so excited to have our first Kona Ice day for students TODAY Monday 28th! We HIGHLY recommend you pay ahead with the QR code on the flyer.

The Owensboro Police Department will be hosting a Cops & Bobbers event. This will be on October 6th at 5:00pm located at Jack C. Fisher Park. It is a community policing initiative that builds positive relationships between local law enforcement and children in our community. This fun, educational event gives children the chance to spend time outdoors with local officers while learning the fundamentals of fishing. While the event is geared toward children, families are welcome and encouraged to participate together! Cops & Bobbers is all about creating a positive, informal environment where children, adults, families, and officers can interact, ask questions, and get to know one another while developing a better understanding of the role law enforcement plays in our community — and hopefully catching some fish along the way!

Frank Miller and Son Sporting Goods will be providing bait, and KY Dept of Fish & Wildlife will be on-site with fishing poles available to borrow. OPD will provide grilled hot dogs and chips at no cost to attendees, while supplies last. Exemptions for fishing license during the event only.

Bring the family, enjoy some time outdoors, meet our officers, and cast a line with us at Cops & Bobbers! October 6th, 5-7 PM
