The Bonney Lake Target opened its doors a few hours early Saturday morning to accommodate the 2013 Shop with a Cop event.

The program provided a shopping spree for 22 under-privileged children to purchase Christmas gifts for their families and themselves.

Bonney Lake Police Officer Todd Green said this was one of the most successful years for the program to-date.

“It was clear the kids had an amazing time and were very appreciative for the opportunity,” Green said. “None of this would have been possible if not for the generous donations made in the name of our late King Cooper and by our community. We also couldn’t have done it without the support of the Bonney Lake Target store. Thank you to everyone that helped make the 2013 Shop with a Cop a huge success!”
