Nearly 100 law enforcement officers will wait on guests at participating Ward Centers restaurants Thursday and Friday as part of the Special Olympics Hawaiçi’s annual Tip a Cop fund-raising event.

The 19th annual event will feature officers who will wait on tables and donate their tips to the Special Olympics. Officials hope to raise $15,000 to fund the organization’s Aukake Classic, an Olympic-style event set for Aug. 22-23.
Restaurants that will be participating in the event include Big City Diner, Dave & Busters, Kincaid’s, Old Spaghetti Factory, Ryan’s Grill, Buca De Beppo, Kanpai Bar & Grill, and Sushi Masa. The officers will be on duty from 7 a.m.-9 p.m. at Big City Diner, and from 6-9 p.m. at the other restaurants.
