The numbers are in and the Lake Forest Park Police raised $5,500 for Special Olympics with their salmon barbecue at the LFP Farmers' Market on Sunday, September 14, 2014.

All the food was donated, including Icicle Seafood's donation of 100 pounds of wild Alaskan Sockeye Salmon, so all the money collected went to the Special Olympics.
