Battle Ground police officers invite community members to join them and connect over a cup of coffee on National Coffee with a Cop Day Wednesday, October 2 from 10:00 to 11:30 am at Old Town Battle Grounds located at 316 East Main Street.
Coffee with a Cop Day provides opportunity for an open dialogue between Battle Ground police officers and the community in a friendly and informal setting. There is no specific topic; officers want to hear from and talk with Battle Ground citizens about what matters to them. Community members of of all ages - decaf, regular and non-coffee drinkers alike - are encouraged to attend.
The department thanks Old Town Battle Grounds for providing a welcoming place for this year’s Coffee with a Cop.
