Little Mark's BBQ & Grill

The Vernon Police Department will host a Tip-A-Cop event benefiting Special Olympics Connecticut on Wednesday, Oct. 28 from 4-8 p.m. at Little Mark's BBQ and Grill in Vernon.

During the event, law enforcement will join restaurant staff in serving and interactions with customers while helping raise funds that provide year-round opportunities for Special Olympics athletes. The money raised through Tip-A-Cop helps fund programs that directly benefit athletes, including sports training and competition, equipment, coaching, and tournaments.


The impact of donations extends beyond the playing field. Fundraising supports Healthy Athletes programs that provide free health screenings and education, fitness and wellness initiatives, athlete leadership opportunities, and Unified Sports, which bring athletes with and without intellectual disabilities together as teammates.


“When you tip a cop, you are leaving more than a tip. You are helping create opportunities, build confidence, and empower athletes to reach their dreams,” Sgt. Nikki Mordasiewicz of the Hartford Police Department said. “Together, we serve, support, and make a difference for Special Olympics Connecticut.”


Tip-A-Cop fundraisers provide law enforcement with an opportunity to strengthen its connection with the community while continuing to inspire inclusion for people of all abilities. All tips received will be dedicated to helping Special Olympics Connecticut provide life-changing sports, health, and fitness programs to athletes of all abilities. Tip-A-Cop is a Law Enforcement Torch Run for Special Olympics Connecticut event.

The change that we wish to create does not happen simply by hoping for it. When we understand how change works, we can begin to guide it with intention.
In this engaging session, Dr. Stefanie Toise will breakdown the process of change and discover how small, intentional shifts can help you move from feeling stuck to taking clear, confident action in your daily life. To make change happen, we need to learn about the obstacles that stand in its way. We will explore and learn more about what obstacles we have and how they hold us back. This is the first step toward making changes in our lives.
No prior experience is needed. Registration is required.
This seminar is sponsored by the Friends of Rockville Public Library
<hr>
Dr. Stefanie Toise holds a doctorate in psychology, a Master of Public Health, and is a certified medical yoga therapist. She teaches practical, science-based tools that help people understand how change happens and how to create it in their own lives. Her engaging workshops blend behavioral science, mindfulness, and breath practices to help participants experience greater clarity, steadiness, and new possibilities.
