We ate over at Claim Jumper tonight and we found that the Redmond Police Department were doing a fund raising event at the restaurant called “Tip a Cop” in which they trade in their ticket books in exchange for aprons and work by assisting the wait staff in an effort to raise money and awareness for the Special Olympics. Claim Jumper was donating all proceeds for the evening to the cause. There was also an envelope on the table in which you could put an additional donation if you were so inclined. It also gave us a great “excuse” to go over the top and get a great meal with dessert of course!
We had a great time! They really went all out to provide a great dining experience and it was very entertaining to be served by Redmond’s officers. In addition to assisting with the dining room, they also had a squad car and police dogs outside. You could have a picture taken of yourself getting arrested or in the car. I couldn’t resist! (pictures below) The money for the pictures also goes to Special Olympics.
I commend them on their efforts.
