When a collision with a bus led to Evan Pickles’ front tooth being knocked out, a campus awareness program — and save-a-tooth kits in the hands of DPS officers — made all the difference.

Monday’s event on the University Park Campus included interactive demos, activities and giveaways.

The officers and the young volunteers pitched in at World Harvest’s annual pre-Thanksgiving food drive, distributing a variety of food including Thursday’s main dish.
