Fly high with Cops for Kids

Children check out a law enforcement helicopter at last year's Cops for Kids Fly-In.

Common sense says to get out of the way of a brigade of police officials in motor vehicles and helicopters, but not this time. On Tuesday, Oct. 20, at 11 a.m. everyone is invited to participate in the yearly event Cops for Kids Fly-In. 

This 17th annual event will take place outside of Loma Linda University Medical Center on the north lawn next to Loma Linda University Church. 

Featuring law enforcement from all over Southern California, children will be given the opportunity to see, up close, SWAT vans, helicopters, motorcycles and more. 

The event begins with the helicopters landing, followed by the motorcycle police converging in front of Wong Kerlee International Conference Center. Once everyone is in place, children along with family members will be able to meet with the law enforcement before they move into Children’s Hospital to deliver toys and visit with kids on the units.

This event promises to be fun excitement for all ages, and all are encouraged to participate in the experience.
