Attend the Pizza With Police Event on May 15

The second-annual “Pizza With Police” event will be held 4-8 p.m. Wednesday, May 15 at Rosland Park, 4300 W. 66th St., Edina. This event is held in partnership with the Bloomington Police Department and is sponsored by Brew Pub Lotzza Motzza Pizza, Jerry’s Foods and Cub Foods.

Pizza With Police gives community members an opportunity to meet members of local law enforcement. Attendees can purchase a slice of pizza and a beverage for $5. Law enforcement and their families will receive a complimentary slice of pizza and beverage. Balloon artists, face painters, and yard games will also be available. Attendees will also be able to meet the Edina SWAT Team, Motorcycle Unit, Bloomington Bomb Squad, and a K-9 officer.

“It’s an honor to be able to work with Brew Pub Lotzza Motzza Pizza on this Pizza with Police event. We’re excited to be able to interact with area residents over a slice of pizza. We want to make this a great community event,” said Edina Lt. Dan Conboy. “All the proceeds from this event benefit Minnesota Law Enforcement Memorial Association (MN LEMA), which helps families of those who have fallen in the line of duty. That makes this a very special event.”

Brew Pub Pizza is donating 20 percent of sales from every pizza sold in Jerry’s Foods in Edina and Cub Foods Southdale May 12-18 to MN LEMA. To learn more about MN LEMA, visit MNLema.org. For more information about the Edina Police Department, visit EdinaMN.gov/Police.
