DAYTON,OH (WDTN-WBDT) - MVCPOP stands for Miami Valley Community Problem Oriented Policing and Saturday morning you will have a chance to get involved, pick up some great crime fighting tips and hang with the cops all for free.

The 2nd annual conference is held at Ponitz High School in Dayton.

Police departments from all over the area and the country will be on hand offering crime prevention dos and dont's, demonstrations, plus lots of kids activities.

One major goal of the conference is to help break down the wall of misunderstanding sometimes between citizens, kids and police officers.

Our own Jim Bucher will be on hand to kick off the kids activities. (how appropriate)

Registration for the event begins at 8am Saturday morning May 19.
