THANK YOU to our Secret Santas! This past weekend, two "Secret Santas" dropped off at the police station an envelope with a letter and a number of gift cards to give to people who could use a little bit of help coming up on Thanksgiving and Christmas. With the help of the South Williamsport Area School District, we were able to surprise a few families that very much appreciated the gifts from the Secret Santas. Even though the Secret Santas wanted us to keep the fast food ca...rds for ourselves, they were also passed on to families who could use a little bit extra. A very humble and grateful THANK YOU to the Secret Santas that donated the gifts!
