The officers of Branford Police Department are kicking off the annual Special Olympics fundraiser season on Sunday, June 2 with the first-ever Branford Police Dunk-A-Branford-Cop fundraiser. Several members of the Branford Police Department will be volunteering their personal time in order to raise money to support Special Olympics and all of their athletes.
The Branford Police Dunk-A-Branford-Cop fundraiser will be held in the Meat House parking lot, 103 North Main St. Branford, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Those attending will have the opportunity to dunk their favorite (or least favorite officer) and enjoy food prepared fresh by the Meat House.
Free cotton candy, ice cream and face painting will be available. Curious Creatures will also be on hand at 1 p.m. with their educational display of exotic and unusual animals. There will also be raffle prizes with all proceeds for this event going to benefit the Connecticut Special Olympics athletes.
