Delivering a box full of goodies to Freestone County Sheriff Jeremy Shipley on Monday, November 21, 2022 are Fairfield Lions Club members (left-right): Gilbert Gatlin, Ellen Gatlin, Mark Ornelas, and Emilee Terry.

This is the first presentation for the club’s new ‘Adopt A Cop’ program.

A gift box is located at the Fairfield Brookshire Brothers where anyone from town can show their appreciation for a member of law enforcement with a gift card, thank you note, candy, flowers, etc.

Collections are currently being accepted on behalf of Fairfield Chief of Police David Utsey.

The Fairfield Lions Club thanks everyone for their participation. And, be sure to ask Sheriff Shipley about the unique handcuffs he received!
