The Wake Forest Police Department will “serve” area residents in an entirely different way on Saturday, Oct. 21, during the “Tip a Cop for Special Olympics” fundraiser.
Several officers will be “working” at the Wake Forest Red Robin, 11420 Capital Blvd., from 11 a.m.-9 p.m. assisting restaurant staff in taking orders and serving meals to restaurant patrons.
At the end of the day, all of the tips the officers receive for their efforts will go to Special Olympics of North Carolina to support the athletes who participate in the organization’s year-round sports, health and fitness programs.
This marks the 12th consecutive year the Wake Forest Police Department has participated in the Tip a Cop fundraiser. During that time, the department has raised over $20,000 for Special Olympics.
