OPERATION CHILL
The Bedminster Twp. Police Department is teaming up with 7-Eleven, Inc. to
reward local kids through the company’s community outreach program,
Operation Chill®. Now in its 29th year, the Operation Chill program allows law
enforcement officers to create positive connections by awarding a free
Slurpee® drink coupon to kids they see doing good deeds or exhibiting
positive behavior. The coupons can be redeemed for a free small Slurpee®
drink at any participating U.S. 7-Eleven®, Speedway®, or Stripes® store.
Although the reasons for kids being rewarded vary – wearing a helmet while
riding a bike, picking up litter, helping a neighbor or holding the door open –
the result is the same: a FREE Slurpee® drink and encouragement for being a
great citizen.
The Operation Chill program was founded in Philadelphia with a goal to give
law enforcement officers a positive way to interact with children and teens.
Since inception in 1995, Operation Chill has expanded to hundreds of cities
across the country, donating more than 24 million coupons to U.S. law
enforcement agencies in 7-Eleven, Inc. communities.
