Vicksburg Optimist Club (VOC) gifted members of the Vicksburg Police and Warren County Sheriff’s Department with snacks to thank them for all the hard work they do for our community.

VOC members Bethany and Eddie Walls traveled to both departments on Thursday to deliver the gift baskets, where law enforcement were happy to accept the generous donation.
