The Lyon County Sheriff’s Office is once again participating in Cram the Cruiser, a community effort to collect donations of food and cash for the Hope Food Bank and toys for other local charities, including the Family Resource Center, during the holiday season.
Members of the community are encouraged to stop by the courthouse, Monday through Friday (8am-4pm), as well as designated retail outlets on the weekends between now and December 15th to help “cram the cruiser” that’s parked in front of these locations. We accept non-perishable food items such as canned fruit and vegetables, canned meat, macaroni and cheese, cereal, peanut butter, jelly, canned soups, chili or spaghetti sauce, brownie and cake mixes, coffee, water, powdered milk, and juice. Items can be placed directly in the rear of the cruiser or brought into the Sheriff’s Office. We will then deliver donations to the Hope Food Bank, Family Resource Center, and other local charities.
Lastly, if you know of someone in our community who needs extra assistance this year whether it is food need or toy need for their children, please contact Sheriff Brent White at (270) 388-2311 or brent.white@lyonsheriff.com with this information. Lyon County continues to be one of the most giving communities in Western Kentucky and we are appreciative of the support we receive each year toward this effort.
