Crime Stoppers of Lewis County will be available at the Southwest Washington Fair this week to help parents out by creating special laminated identification cards for youngsters.
A photograph, thumbprint and basic information will be put on the card, with one copy for the child to carry and a duplicate to put away in a safe place in the event it is ever needed, according to the organization.
Crime Stoppers will not retain any of the data from the cards, according to a news release.
The program being launched tomorrow is called “My ID Club” and is sponsored by Community Health Plans of Washington and supported by Valley View Health Centers, according to the news release.
The cards can be obtained between 1 p.m. and 5 p.m. starting tomorrow through the last day of the fair at the Lewis County Sheriff’s Office booth on the south fairway.

You can also use seberal types of make up powder. You can also buy sterile swabs, swab the inside of your child’s mouth and keep them in a sterile box (also sold online) so you now have dna for your child in case they go missing.
Here’s a thought:
Take a pencil and use a razor blade to shave off some lead onto a piece of paper. Then, take your child’s fingers and place each one the powder, then take the finger (rolling it from left to right) across a piece of white paper! Then, take a piece of scotch tape and cover each print! Do that for each child on a file card and put it in a safe place. Also, you can take a piece of hair (by the root) and add it to your PRIVATE evidence of your child.
Just a thought. There’s no need for the whole world to have that info. Just in case it falls into the wrong hands.
Let’s just hope that copies of these “protective cards” don’t end up in the wrong hands.
The whole “Check my ID Card Club” has been an online scam for many many years.
It’s a known fact that most of the so-called “members” of these online programs used to store information on children, are pedophiles.
Can’t believe the LCSO would even promote such a thing. But then again, thinking back to last year’s Fire Department pictures of layouts of children’s homes being displayed at the MALL; well it don’t really surprise me that much I guess.
