RENFREW — Youth demonstrating positive actions, positive behaviour and showing acts of kindness toward others may earn themselves some well-deserved acknowledgment this summer. The OPP is proud to be continuing its partnership with Mac’s Convenience Stores across Ontario again this year for Operation Freeze 2019.
OPP officers will be on the lookout in their communities; and when they “catch” a youth participating in an act of kindness the youth will receive a ‘thank you’ in the form of a free “ticket” coupon for a ‘cool’ Froster drink.
A youth may receive a “Positive Ticket” from an officer for a number of positive behaviours: doing a good deed; participating in community activities; demonstrating community pride e.g. picking up trash; deterring crime or observing school crossing rules; or as an “icebreaker” to establish a rapport with kids in their patrol area.
“Mac’s is excited to once again partner with the OPP on this important initiative that encourages kids across Ontario to make positive decisions within their communities” said Sean Sportun, Manager, Loss Prevention & Security for Mac’s in Central Canada
