The Town of Davidson Police Department is excited to be back building connections with the community at its fourth annual Cone with a Cop event after a 2-year break due to COVID-19. 

The public is invited to join officers at Whit’s Frozen Custard (428 S. Main Street) on Saturday, June 11 from 11:00 a.m. until 1:00 p.m. when children will be able to interact with police officers and others while enjoying vanilla or chocolate custard.

This year, the event is expanding to include a Safety Day focus. Children will be able to learn about personal safety, such as how to handle strangers, cross the street safely, and more, and families can learn how to properly install a child car seat. Emergency Medical Services (EMS) personnel will also be on hand to answer questions.

“The Davidson Police Department loves being able to interact with our community members, especially kids, in an environment without crisis” said Police Chief Penny Dunn. “Cone with a Cop is a great event for allowing children a chance to have a yummy, sweet treat, get to know some of our officers, and learn a few things that will help keep them safe in a comfortable environment.”
