ORWIGSBURG, SCHUYLKILL COUNTY (WBRE/WYOU) — A Schuylkill County community got a chance to see local officers in a whole new light while getting to see the new community police station.

Outside the Orwigsburg Police Department, neighbors gathered to enjoy games, food, and fun activities. Kids explored police vehicles, met officers, and played games.

The goal: to help the community connect with those who serve them, beyond emergencies.
