We really appreciate all of the support for our program! What a great community we live in!! ❤️
The 2026 Cop on Top event, held Thursday, August 27th, was a great success!
With the support of our first-responder friends and community partners, we celebrated and supported our local Special Olympics athletes while raising $6,110 at the event.
We want to thank the Kittitas County Sheriff’s Office, Central Washington University Police Department, Kittitas County Corrections, and the Washington State Patrol for participating alongside EPD in this special event.
A special shout-out to Kittitas Valley Fire & Rescue for bringing the ladder truck to safely raise and lower the officers and deputies to and from the roof.
Thank you to Fred Meyer/Kroger for providing the event space and awarding a grant to purchase backpacks and school supplies for local children. This year, we were able to give away 100 backpacks filled with school supplies to school-aged children.
We also extend our sincere thanks to our other community partners-A-1 Petroleum, Generations of Ellensburg, Roots Physical Therapy, Twin Pines Drive In, and the Ellensburg Rodeo Top Hands-for donating money, products, and their time to this worthy event. Thank you to all our community members who took the time to see us and donate to this cause!
