Ellisville Police Department Selling Ornaments for Backstoppers
The policeman and fireman Santa ornaments are available at the police department.
This year, the Ellisville Police Department is offering up a new (and helpful) way to deck the tree this Christmas season.
The police department is selling policeman and fireman Santa Claus glass ornaments for $9 each through Ornaments for Officers. All the proceeds will go toward Backstoppers, a local organization that benefits families of first responders killed in the line of duty.
Along with each ornament comes a sampling of coupons from St. Louis businesses, including Great Clips, Midas and Krispy Kreme, according to the Ornaments for Officers website.
