 Santa knows where to find all the best and hottest smartphones just in time to make this Christmas better and bigger than ever. Better service, bigger savings, that's today's Appalachian Wireless. More than $10,000 worth of Christmas presents were purchased last night by the Mingo County Sheriff's Office. Thursday the Mingo County Deputy Sheriff's Association hosted its 20th annual Shop with the Deputy program. 100 students from Pre-K to 4th grade were able to spend $100 each at Walmart in South Williamson. It wouldn't be possible without the community, you know, a lot of people, a lot of business step up and donate. We normally only have to collect one time a year for this. This is the program that's been on so long for 20 years that somebody knows somebody that's been affected by this program over the last 20 years. That's why I think people give so willingly to the program. 14 students from each elementary school in Mingo County are chosen for the program. We let the school personnel pick the kids that come and shop with us. You know, we don't see the kids on a day-to-day basis like they do, so they actually send us a list with a kid's name and the kids will show up here to shop with us. This is Chief Field Deputy Joe Smith's 17th year participating in the event. He says every year is worth it after seeing the look on the children's faces. It's unbelievable what some kids will pick out. You know, the stories they have, a lot of kids, this will be the only gifts they get. So, you know, we allow them to spend $100 with whatever they want, but it will amaze you, you know, what some kids will pick out and tell you why you're shopping with them.
