Village Trustees Patricia Higginson and Norma Pinion joined Bridgeview police officers and volunteers collecting donations for the Special Olympics outside of the Dunkin’ Donuts at 79th St. & Roberts Rd. the morning of Friday, May 16th. Bridgeview supports this annual statewide “Cop On a Rooftop” effort every year, with officers placing squad cars with flashing lights outside the business to attract attention, waving cars into the parking lot, and casting a fishing line with a giant inflatable donut attached from the rooftop of the Dunkin’ building.
“Bridgeview has been part of the Cop On a Rooftop fundraiser for decades,” explained Trustee Higginson. “The Illinois Special Olympics is a great cause to support, and we’re always happy to do it.”
