Kids were able to trick or treat inside Harris Teeter.  Outside in the parking lot, children received tours of the fire trucks, and the Mobile Fire Safety House was stationed there as well.  People could drop off unused or expired medicine at the Pill Drop off Booth, and citizens were able to participate in Coffee with a Cop to build relationships with local law enforcement.

“It’s extremely important we make ourselves available to the public in a myriad of ways,” said Sheriff Godfrey. “The Moore County Sheriff’s Office is customer-service-orientated, and we are grateful for these types of venues because it gives us an opportunity to hear from those we serve.”  

The Moore County Animal Services’ Mobile Adoption Trailer was at the event which resulted in two cats and one dog finding their forever home with their new families.
