Clearlake Police officers deliver Thanksgiving dinners to those in need

CLEARLAKE, Calif. – On Wednesday, members of the Clearlake Police Officers Association delivered Thanksgiving dinners to families in the city of Clearlake.

The Thanksgiving dinner delivery to families in need has been a tradition for the Clearlake Police Officers Association for many years, according to association President Jared Nixon.

Throughout the year, members of the police officers association meet numerous families and children who are going through difficult times, Nixon explained.

Through these contacts and assistance with community organizations, Nixon said families are chosen and contacted to receive a Thanksgiving dinner.

Nixon said this program means a lot to the Clearlake Police Officers Association and has been successful because of community support.

This year, Nixon said the association sent a special thank you to the Clearlake Safeway for its donations to, and support of, the Clearlake Police Officers Association Thanksgiving Program.

“The Clearlake Police Officers Association would also like to wish our community members a Happy Thanksgiving,” Nixon said.
