2019 Creemee From A Cop

What might you do for a free creemee?  One possible way: say “hi” to your local law enforcement officer!  Once again this creemee season, the Vermont Dairy Promotion Council and the Vermont Agency of Agriculture are teaming up for the “Creemee From A Cop” program. 

The 2019 Kickoff was held at Billy-T's Northside Dairy Bar in Bennington.  Nearly 80 kids and cops enjoyed free creemees to kick off the Creemee From A Cop program!

During the 2018 creemee season, Fox44/22 tagged along with Officer Jason Zeiter of the Winooski Police Department to get a "taste" of what the program is all about:

The mission of this program is to promote Vermont dairy through positive interactions of Vermont law enforcement and members of their community.  Wear your bike helmet?  Cross the street at a crosswalk?  Help someone carry their groceries?  Who knows, if a cop sees this happen he or she may hand you a coupon good for one free creemee at a shop in those towns.  The coupons represent an opportunity for cops and community members to interact outside of law enforcement activities.  

Vermont Agency of Agriculture, Food & Markets Secretary Anson Tebbetts commented, “Now is a very important time to support our dairy farmers by enjoying as much dairy as you can.  Dairy farmers want to help promote safe, healthy and positive communities, and creemees can do that….especially maple creemees!”
