It is with great regret that Yamhill County Sheriff’s Office has decided to cancel our 2020 Shop with a Sheriff event. The annual tradition that brings County law enforcement agencies together with children from County schools won't be happening this Christmas due to COVID-19. While we will happily accept donations towards next year’s event, we encourage you to donate towards other charities that may assist families during the holiday period, especially during this time of greater need. We look forward to joining with our local school districts next year for another fun filled evening of shopping, laughter, and fun.

The Yamhill County Sheriff’s Office is pleased to announce our Fourth Annual Shop with a Sheriff, our 2019 holiday initiative. In 2016, Sheriff Svenson refocused the annual Toys for Kids Program campaign in order to increase the personal interaction between local school children and your Yamhill County Sheriff’s Office organization. He believes that positive one-on-one interactions between the children of Yamhill County and his staff will have a significant impact in enriching relationships between the Sheriff’s Office, businesses, and the community that extend beyond the holiday season.
“As members of the community ourselves, we know there are needs that we can’t always address in the normal course of business, as much as we would like to. The Shop with a Sheriff program will give us the chance to focus on the connection with community members in an enjoyable way. I mean, who doesn’t like shopping for presents? It’s fun!” -- Sheriff Svenson.
Uniformed officers and support staff from Yamhill County Sheriff's Office and neighboring agencies have volunteered their time to take participating children from Yamhill County holiday shopping. The Sheriff’s Office has sought the assistance of county school districts to identify recipients. For more information, please contact Emily Williams (503/474-6289 or williamse@co.yamhill.or.us)
