OPP launching Operation Freeze

REGIONAL — Demonstrating positive behaviour and participating in random acts of kindness is the cool thing to do this summer.

The Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) is partnering once again with Mac’s/ Circle K Convenience Stores across Ontario for this year’s Operation Freeze 2021.

OPP officers will be on the lookout and if they catch a youth showcasing positive behaviour in their community, they may receive a thank you in the form of a ticket for a Mac’s/Circle K Froster drink.

A youth may receive a positive ticket from an officer for a number of positive behaviours: helping others in need, being leaders, doing a good deed and/or participating in community activities.

Officers from Essex County’s five OPP detachments, Essex, Kingsville, Lakeshore, Leamington and Tecumseh, will be out this summer looking for deserving youth.
