 This past Saturday, I attended an event held near the Prairie Village Little League fields, located behind Stonestreet Elementary. It was a fun and unique event called Cornhole with Cops. This event was a community gathering that brought together residents and the 3rd Division officers of the Louisville Metro Police Department (LMPD).
The event started at noon with the smell of hot dogs grilling. Children enjoyed their time in the bounce house, while adults and officers engaged in a friendly cornhole tournament.
The event was not just about fun and games. It was an opportunity for community members to interact with the 3rd Division LMPD officers. The officers took the time to mingle with attendees, answer questions, and build connections.
I cannot stress enough of the importance of such community events in fostering positive relationships and strengthening our community. We look forward to more such events in the future.
