🧭 Event Overview

We invite all law enforcement professionals — including police officers, sheriffs, correctional officers, and support staff — to join us for a special day of appreciation, rest, and reconnection.

Every day, you carry out your duties with strength, courage, and care — often under immense stress and pressure. It’s no secret that:

• 🧠 Law enforcement professionals experience PTSD, anxiety, and depression at rates 2–3x higher than the general public.
• 💬 Burnout and emotional fatigue are rising, even among the most seasoned officers.
• 🔇 Many of these challenges go unspoken or unsupported.

This event is our way of saying: We see you. We thank you. We care.

Who Should Attend?

• Police Officers
• Sheriffs & Deputies
• Correctional Officers
• Dispatchers & Support Staff
• Probation & Parole Personnel
• Anyone in law enforcement or corrections roles
