The Shop with a Cop program was established as a way to foster goodwill between the community and Law Enforcement in St. Mary's county. Through the Optimist Clubs and the FOP Lodge #7, State's Attorney's office, and corporate and private donors, the children selected by County services, Board of Ed. This event is held twice a year, once during December for a Christmas shopping spree and once during the month of August for School Supply Shopping.  

 Through the support of the Law Enforcement, Walmart, the Optimist Clubs of Compton, Bushwood, Mechanicsville, St. Marie's, and Chaptico, and our volunteers, we ARE making a difference.


Planning is currently underway for our Christmas shopping spree.  We are always looking for your help in this effort to "Bring out the Best in Kids"!!  Please contact if you are interested.
