Members of SPHS’s chapter of the National Honor Society helped area law enforcement/emergency services personnel, including St. Peter Police Department and Fire Department members, during the seventh annual Shop With A Hero event. The event took place on Saturday, Dec. 7, at the Fleet Farm store in Mankato and the SPHS NHS students helped wrap the gifts.
The Heroes were able to take 19 area children holiday shopping that day, thanks to donations from the Minnesota South Central Investigator's Coalition, Helping Minnesota Heroes, the Lions Club, Fleet Farm, as well as charitable gambling from The Red Men Club, The Flame Bar, The Embassy Bar, and the Blue Moon. Minnesota River Valley Transit provided transportation for several families.
Our Heroes represented the Saint Peter Police Department, North Mankato Police Department, Nicollet County Sheriff's Office, Minnesota State Patrol, Saint Peter Fire Department, North Mankato Fire Department and the William R Witty American Legion Post 37.
