SBSO RECEIVED BICYCLES FOR C.O.P.S. FOR CHRISTMAS PROGRAM
Associated Terminals, exclusive operator of the Port of St. Bernard’s marine facilities, has been donating bicycles since 2003 to the St. Bernard Sheriff’s Office to give to St. Bernard Parish children for Christmas.
Sheriff James Pohlmann said the bicycles were delivered to the Sheriff’s Office once again in December, and were presented to the recipients right before Christmas through the C.O.P.S (Caring Officers Provide Smiles) for Christmas program that helps needy families each year by providing things such as toys, Christmas trees, food, clothing and household items.
Associated Terminals, the largest midstream stevedoring company on the Mississippi River, operates at sites including the Chalmette Slip in St. Bernard Parish, and in Plaquemines Parish and Reserve.
Employees at Associated Terminals donate money to help fund the bicycle project.
