Mark your calendars for an inspiring and heartfelt event as the Clermont Police Department hosts its Fourth Annual Clermont Honoring the Fallen 5K. Taking place in Downtown Clermont, this event brings the community together to honor the memory of the nearly 116 law enforcement officers who tragically lost their lives in the line of duty in 2024.
Formerly known as the Conrad Buckley Legacy Scholarship 5K, this race channels all proceeds and donations to Concerns of Police Survivors and the Code 4 Initiative, two organizations providing essential support to officers and their families during times of need. Your participation helps ensure these heroes and their loved ones are never forgotten.
