I've been on this Board since conception, over 5yrs. Each time I hear of such a tragic lose, it makes me realize how important it is for our goal to be met. Please join in on this event in Honor of those who give the altimate sacrifice.

Fundraiser supporting fallen Algona Officer Kevin Cram’s family.

Please stop by Barn Town Brewing in West Des Moines on October 19, starting at 4pm when they will host a beer release of Hops For Cops! They will have beer for purchase on site and there will also be beer available for purchase to take home. Barn Town wanted to brew a beer for law enforcement and give the proceeds to local departments. The fundraiser will be providing money to the Dallas County Sheriff’s Office, West Des Moines Police Department, and the Waukee Police Department.

All proceeds received by all three departments will be donated to fallen Algona Officer Kevin Cram’s family.

Please stop by and support your local law enforcement and Officer Cram’s family!

Below is a copy of the label that will be printed on black beer cans for the event!

Hope to see you there!
