How can I have McGruff appear at my event (where can I get a McGruff suit)?
McGruff can only be played by law enforcement officers; law enforcement organizations around the country have purchased the costume for outreach programs. To have McGruff appear at your event:
Call the crime prevention or community relations officer at your local law enforcement agency. Ask if that agency has the McGruff costume or knows of another nearby agency that does. Explain your event's purpose with as many details as possible, including the date, time, and location. It's always helpful to meet with the officer in person and provide fact sheets on the event.
If a costume is locally available, give plenty of advance notice. McGruff is in great demand, and his appearances must fit into staff schedules.
If you can't find a costume locally; contact Robotronics (801-489-4466) or National Crime Prevention Council (202-466-6272). Provide the zip code of your event's location, and they will identify the nearest law enforcement agency with the costume.
If a McGruff costume isn't available in your community, consider asking local businesses to buy one and donate it to the law enforcement agency.
It's a unique opportunity for businesses to demonstrate support for crime prevention and win positive publicity and good will.
