The Fremont Police Department would like to invite you to participate in our upcoming fundraising event, “Guns ‘n’ Hoses.” The event is a charity basketball game between the Fremont Police and Fire Department. This is the third charity basketball game the two Department's have worked together to organize. The Fremont Police Department won the first two games, so there is a lot at stake this year.

The event is 100% voluntary and all proceeds from the event will benefit Special Olympics Northern California, a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting understanding, acceptance, and inclusion between people with and without intellectual disabilities through year-round sports training and athletic competition.

The event will be held at Washington High School, located at 38442 Fremont Blvd., Fremont, California, on Saturday, April 16, 2011, at 6 p.m.
