On May 19, don’t be surprised to see St. Charles Police Officers posted on the rooftops at two St. Charles Dunkin Donuts locations: 1711 W. Main St and 2701 E. Main St. They will be perched up on the roof to bring awareness to the annual “Cop on a Rooftop” fundraiser benefitting Special Olympics Illinois. And meet Swany from the Eric & Kathy Morning Show and spin the MIX prizewheel at Dunkin Donuts, 2701 E. Main St. from 7-9 a.m. More information here http://wtmx.com/events/#meet-kathy-hart-the-mix-road-crew-at-dunkin-donuts

The St. Charles event is one of more than 190 Dunkin Donut rooftop events happening all over Illinois to raise money for the Illinois Law Enforcement Torch Run benefiting Special Olympics. This is the 15th year Illinois law enforcement officials have joined forces with Dunkin Donuts for this special event. Over those 15 years, nearly $3.2 million have been raised, with last year’s event raising more than $670,000.

Stop by the St. Charles Dunkin Donuts locations from 5 a.m. to 2 p.m. Customers who donate will be given a coupon for a free donut. Donors giving $10 or more will receive a coupon for a free coffee and Law Enforcement Torch Run/Dunkin Donuts stainless steel travel mug (while supplies last)!

Officers will also be selling Law Enforcement Torch Run merchandise at each location. T-shirts, hats, lapel pins, and coffee mugs will all be available for purchase. Additionally, donors will have the opportunity to enter a raffle for a 2017 Harley-Davidson Street Glide motorcycle!
