Off duty deputies and other employees of the Lewis County Sheriff’s Office will be serving breakfast at Applebee’s on Saturday morning to raise money for the memorial to fallen local law enforcement officers to be placed in front of the Law and Justice Center in Chehalis.
So far, $28,000 has been raised out of an estimated $55,000 needed for the almost life-sized tribute of an officer, a police dog and a child, according to Chief Civil Deputy Stacy Brown.
Tickets can be purchased for $10 at the sheriff’s office front counter or at the door that morning.
The event runs from 7 a.m. until 10 a.m. The breakfast includes pancakes, eggs, sausage, bacon, coffee, milk and juice.
Applebee’s is at 1670 NW Louisiana Ave. in Chehalis.
