Ten local youngsters each had a $200 Christmas shopping spree at Walmart last week, thanks to the generosity of the Farmville Police Department, Pizza Hut, and Walmart. These five young men enjoyed shopping with police officers on Thursday: front row—Daunte Campbell-Williams, left, and Noah Alexander Long, and the three young men behind them, from left, Austin Gibbs, Jason Taylor Long, and Justin Antonio Long. Helping the Christmas spirit along were, from left, Walmart associate Angela Hurt, Walmart store manager David Holton, Walmart associates Pamela Wagner and Rhonda Rutledge, police officer C. E. Stembridge, Chief Doug Mooney, Corporal Jay Talbott, Pizza Hut store manager Selena Holland, and Farmville Police Detective Sam Entrekin. (Photo by Ken Woodley)
