Tip A Cop fundraiser for Special Olympics at Carson City Black Bear Diner this Wednesday
Carson City area law enforcement officers will serve as wait staff this Wednesday at Black Bear Diner inside Max Casino as part of this month's Tip-a-Cop fundraiser for Special Olympics Nevada.
Join deputies and Black Bear Diner staff for lunch or dinner, with law officers serving meals from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. and from 4 p.m. to 8 p.m. Tips collected during the fundraiser will go directly to Special Olympics Nevada. Black Bear Diner is located at Max Casino, 900 South Carson Street in Carson City.
Each month, law enforcement personnel volunteer as waiters, delivering food and drinks with their "tips" donated to Special Olympics. This event raises money to provide local Special Olympics athletes with free sports training and competition opportunities in 9 different sports throughout the year.
Special Olympians from around Carson City and Northern Nevada competed at the Summer Games held in Reno with qualifiers in Carson City. Tip-a-Cop is one of dozens of events annually that raises money for the Law Enforcement Torch Run, which partners with communities around the state to support Special Olympics programs.
On Friday, June 9, Carson City Sheriff's Office, Douglas County Sheriff's Office, Lyon County Sheriff's Office and Storey County Sheriff's Office all participated in the Law Enforcement Torch Run for Special Olympics, carrying the Flame of Hope for the Summer Games Opening Ceremony.
