D-Y Schools Are Great
 

Each year, the Yarmouth Police Relief Association selects a local group or organization to support, in addition to supporting The National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund and YPRA causes.

This year the race will be held in conjunction with the “Faces of Our Future” Kid’s Race & Activities which support D-Y Schools, bringing even more community members to this combined event.

The National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund
 

The mission of the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund is to generate increased public support for the law enforcement profession by permanently recording and appropriately commemorating the service and sacrifice of law enforcement officers; and to provide information that will help promote law enforcement safety.

The YPD BLUE 5K – Run for a Reason is scheduled during the same week as “Peace Officers Memorial Day” which is held every year on May 15^th.
