First responders aren’t just human! This pup was recognized for his bravery too!

And last, but not least, the Fredericktown Police Department joined the group for all of their courageous efforts. Members of Student Council walked the different departments out and gave them gifts to thank them. Student Council reminds us that there are people in our town who go out of their way to keep us protected. Don’t forget to thank a first responder for the time and effort they put forth to keep all of us safe!
