12th annual bark drop
December 17, 2025
more than one way to help
What is “Bark Drop?” For the past 12 years, WWPD and the WWPBA have put forth a massive community effort to not only raise money and collect items for shelter animals, but make a celebratory day of delivering these items as well! The thousands of dollars worth of food, toys, and equipment for the shelter animals gets divided among several of our local Mercer County Shelters. Join us this year in once again collecting and distributing much needed love to our shelter friends!

We love helping hands! If you’re interested in being part of the process of loading the trucks and joining “Elf Team Six” in assisting in the delivery process, please contact Lauren Grogan at lgrogan@westwindsorpolice.com.
Elf Team Six will deliver the items in a huge convoy, utilizing the world-famous Paw Brigade.
