McGruff Takes a Field Trip to Capitol Hill
McGruff the Crime Dog® visited Capitol Hill on July 29, 2008.
On July 29, 2008, McGruff was honored to meet Rep. Tom Latham (R-IA) on Capitol Hill in Washington, DC. Accompanying him were Al Lenhardt, president and CEO of NCPC, and Ernie Allen, president of the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children, who participated in a roundtable talk show led by Rep. Latham. The three gentlemen talked about back-to-school and child safety issues, and the show aired on Iowa cable, television, and radio stations. Afterwards, congressional staff members lined up to have their pictures taken with McGruff. Thank you, Rep. Latham, Al Lenhardt, and Ernie Allen for keeping a focus on our nation’s kids! —Deborah Boone
