Description
Join us for a run under the stars at the Kentucky State Police Training Academy on Friday, September 6, 2024, at 7:30 pm.
The Run to Remember is a 5k fundraiser that pays tribute to the Kentucky State Police's fallen units that have made the ultimate sacrifice. The Kentucky
State Police Foundation is undertaking the largest capital project in its history, which will positively impact officer safety. In 2016, Kentucky State Police determined the need for a 400ft by 600ft Driver Training Skills Pad to conduct driver training and low-speed vehicle techniques. KSP currently uses other agencies' facilities, some located out of state. We are raising funds to build a dedicated Driver Skills Pad on the KSP Academy grounds. This facility will be used in day-to-day in-service training, cadet vehicle training, and mandated vehicle driving training. Currently, 47 percent of all KSP line-of-duty deaths have stemmed from vehicle-related collisions. This driver skills pad allows KSP to enhance training to reduce the number of vehicle fatalities/injuries by sworn personnel. Please help us fund this project and meet a critical need!

Race Day packet pickup will be from 5 pm to 7:30 pm on the night of the event at the KSP Training Academy.
