From 5 to 9 p.m. Friday evening Indiana State Troopers will be on hand at two area Texas Roadhouse Restaurants to help raise money for the Indiana Special Olympics. Troopers will partner with Special Olympics athletes and Texas Roadhouse staff to collect donations that go directly to local athletes.

Join them Friday at the Texas Roadhouse in Fishers or the Texas Roadhouse on Michigan Road to help support this great organization.

Furthermore, during the week of June 19 to June 23, the Indiana State Police will be partnering with Texas Roadhouse Restaurants around the state for the annual Tip-A-Cop event to raise funds for the Indiana Special Olympics.

The Superintendent of the Indiana State Police, Doug Carter, said, “The Indiana State Police, and law enforcement in general, have a bond with Special Olympics and are pleased to be part of the tip-a-cop fund raising event.” This year continues to build the strong law enforcement Tip-A-Cop tradition benefiting Special Olympics Indiana.

Customers are encouraged to donate gratuities in envelopes marked for the Special Olympics, leaving them with troopers at the door as they leave the restaurant. Each donation made helps to raise funds and awareness for adults and children with intellectual disabilities. Throughout its history, the Tip-A-Cop fundraising event, with various restaurant partners, has generated over $2.5 million for Special Olympics.
