Always grateful for opportunities to support the Kinston Police Department and the great work they do in our community.

We were proud to sponsor the KPD golf team at this year's Lenoir & Greene Counties Partnership for Children Golf Tournament. Supporting events that benefit local children and families is something we are always happy to be a part of.

Thank you to the officers who represented KPD and to the Partnership for Children for hosting another great event.

Meet Barbie.

Barbieโ€™s hobbies include:
โ€ข Running full speed for absolutely no reason
โ€ข Turning every toy into her favorite toy
โ€ข Winning over every person she meets
โ€ข Looking innocent

Barbie has energy for DAYS and is always ready to play. Sheโ€™s very sweet, good with people, good with other dogs, and fully committed to living life at 110% at all times.

Sgt. Stewart attempted to get a calm, professional photo with Barbie, but Barbie had other plans and approximately 47 zoomies scheduled throughout the day.

Meet Bingo.

Bingoโ€™s rรฉsumรฉ includes:
โ€ข Professional tail wagger
โ€ข Part-time lap dog despite being absolutely not lap-sized
โ€ข Certified snack detector
โ€ข Extremely suspicious of empty food bowls
โ€ข Will provide emotional support during naps, snacks, and bad TV decisions

Bingo is a very sweet pup who does great around people and other dogs. Heโ€™s got plenty of personality, a lot of love to give, and approximately zero understanding of personal space.

Sgt. Stewart attempted to interview Bingo for this post, but the conversation mostly consisted of โ€œwhoโ€™s a good boy?โ€ and uncontrolled tail wagging.

Carolina Hurricanes, Grainger is willing to trade unlimited tail wags and emotional support in exchange for one opportunity to sound the siren.

Honestly feels like a fair deal.
