Each child received about $300 to spend on anything they wanted.

"I'd probably like to get video games and gifts for mom for Christmas," Gregory Lomax, of Canonsburg, said.

"It's nice for the police to do this and it's like really fun," Klayton Klamis, of Eighty Four, said.

About 80 kids from the Canon-McMillan School District participated in the event.
