The May 2 fundraiser at Tully’s restaurants, including the one on the Vestal Parkway, takes place from 5 to 8 p.m.  The organizers have set a $10,000 dollar goal from sales of chicken tenders dinners to go to the special Olympics program in the region.

The event is a kick-off by law enforcement officers and Special Olympics Athletes for a month-long fund-raising effort.

Tully’s has 11 locations in New York State stretching from the flagship restaurants in the Syracuse area to Rochester, Watertown and Vestal and Batavia.
