Benefitting the 'Bridge'

Officer Natalie Rogers hams it up with Officer Elwood Robertson as people continued to place their bids on a pink raincoat during a raffle held during the Backpack Bridge raffle on Saturday. Tickets during that raffle alone raised close to $200 for the Backpack Bridge program — a teacher-benefitting effort that provides local educators with supplies to help their students during the upcoming school year. The raffle was held in conjunction with a yard sale that day, which helped raise additional money to benefit the program. (Photo by Tami Mouser)
