The Arroyo Grande Police Department is proud to sponsor the Annual Santa Cop program on Saturday, December 14, 2019. Santa Cop gives law enforcement personnel the opportunity to interact with struggling families in a positive way to bring the families, and especially the children, an even more special holiday season. Each and every child has a special and unique story, a story of excitement and appreciation that becomes so evident in their faces and voices when they receive their gifts from Santa Claus.

We would not be able to continue to provide this program, year after year, without the compassion and concern for others and the valuable assistance from community members. We would like to extend a special "Thank You" to our local WalMart for their generous grant that allowed us to purchase gifts for our struggling families and all of our City staff members and community members who contribute to the success of our Santa Cop Program!
