Coffee with a cop

The Vernon North Okanagan RCMP has announced the ‘Coffee with a Cop’ event will return to the area.

‘Coffee with Cop’ has been adopted by many law enforcement agencies across North America as a way for the public and business owners to discuss, meet and engage with their local police officers in an informal setting.

“Last September, officers from the Vernon North Okanagan RCMP hosted ‘Coffee with a Cop’ at six different locations within the North Okanagan area, which was well received by each community,” Vernon RCMP Media Relations Officer Const. Kelly Brett said. “We are looking forward to connecting with residents of each community over the next few months and will be sharing the dates and locations on our Facebook and Twitter pages as they come up.”

The next event will be held Monday June 24, from 10 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. at the Starbucks located at Vernon’s Fruit Union Plaza on Highway 6.
