✴️STACK THE MAC is BACK!✴️

September is Hunger Action Month! All month we go ORANGE to promote hunger awareness. This year we're bringing back our famous Stack the Mac to collect macaroni and cheese to fight food insecurity in Hays County.

We take a three-pronged approach to fighting hunger this month, encouraging people to ADVOCATE, VOLUNTEER, and DONATE!

Last night, our officers made four unrelated arrests after finding suspected methamphetamine and other illegal narcotics on individuals or in their vehicles. We will not tolerate these dangerous drugs in our community, and we will continue working diligently to remove them, and those who use and deal them, from our streets.

Our residents, especially the children, deserve to be safe from substances like these. Every arrest we make is a step toward protecting them from the dangers that come with drug use. If you see drug use or suspicious activity in your area, please report it to us immediately. Calls like these help us keep Kyle a safe place for everyone.
