Local Law Enforcement Appreciation Day Friday, August 5, 2016

There's a local grassroots community outreach that has put together a local 'Law Enforcement Appreciation Day' Friday, August 5, 2016. The group lead by Anthony 'Tony' Nations is asking our local community to show their support of law enforcement officers by wearing blue that day and they also offer some additional suggestions on how to show your thanks!

The date, August 5, was chosen because it's the first anniversary of the death of Shreveport Police Officer Thomas LaValley. Organizers ask that you do whatever you can to show your thanks, whether it be financially, physically or prayerfully.

Some ideas include but are not limited to:

• Buy an LEO a cup of coffee or a soft drink
• Buy them a meal
• A simple hug or expression of thanks
• Prayer
• Discounts on goods or services
• Wearing blue on Friday, August 5, 2016
