Optimist clubs offer their thanks

To the editor:

The Jay County Optimist Clubs would like to thank the residents of Jay County for taking the opportunity to encourage the show of respect for all the law enforcement officers of Jay County.

Optimist Respect for Law Week was an opportunity to say thank you to the officers of Jay County. We would like to challenge everyone to remember all officers every day for their service to the people of Jay County. Simply say thank you as often as you are in the presence of an officer.

Thanks to all the businesses and people who participated during the week with free coffee and help making the week a success — Jinny’s Cafe, all Pak-a-Sak locations, Village Pantry, Burger King, Bizy Dips, Grounds on the Fly, Circle K, Jay County Antique Mall, Richards Restaurant, Arby’s, McDonald’s, Sharlette’s Fudgery, Dunkirk CountryMark and Glass Capital Grill.

Thank you, Jay County.
