Posted October 14, 2012 11:00 pm

Village of Lombard

Lombard Officers will assume everyday restaurant tasks and responsibilities, including greeting and seating guests and waiting on tables. The goal of the “Tip-a-Cop” program is to collect as many donations as possible for Special Olympics through tips.

The Law Enforcement Torch RunÂ® for Special Olympics is the movement's largest grass-roots fundraiser and public awareness vehicle, raising more than $2.9 million in Illinois during 2011.

Torch Run T-shirts, hats and pins will also be available for sale along with raffle tickets for a chance to win a Harley Davidson Street Glide FLHX.

Anyone with questions may contact Lieutenant Cyndy Abenante at

(630) 873-4485 or by email at abenantec@villageoflombard.org. More information about Special Olympics can be found at www.specialolympics.org
