More than 400 people recently attended the first-ever “Kids and Cops Day” in Cahoon Memorial Park, and members of the Bay Men’s Club were on hand to help arrest hunger and thirst.

Bay Men’s Club members (left to right) Dave Adams, Wayne Douglas, Chris Edelman and Greg Sereta, cooked and served food donated by area retailers as a service to the community.

Law enforcement personnel from Bay Village, Avon Lake, Westlake and Rocky River, as well as the Cuyahoga County bomb squad and SWAT team, were on hand. Boats, helicopters, bomb-disarming robots and police dogs were among the highlights from the event, which was designed to help children understand, appreciate and feel comfortable with their local law enforcement authorities, according to event coordinator Shawn May of the Bay Village Police Department.
