“This year the BPS has selected two local charities, Special Olympics Bermuda and The Family Centre, who will benefit from the fundraising efforts of the BPS between 2016/2017.
“In previous years, the BPS has held charitable events such as golf tournaments, casino nights and denim days, with all proceeds raised from these events being equally shared between the two charities.
“For 2017, the BPS has decided to host a Charity Barbeque Cook Off 6pm Saturday, September 2nd between the uniformed agencies. The event titled “King of the Grill” will include the Department of Corrections, Bermuda Fire & Rescue, Bermuda Hospitals Board, Royal Bermuda Regiment and U.S. Customs & Border Protection.
