From the Organizer

Since 2017, we have partnered with the Jeffersonville Police Department to hold an annual community event to raise money for our local law enforcement, the Back Your Blue 5K.  Every year , the event is held down at the Big Four Station in Downtown Jeffersonville with food, activities, and demonstrations for everyone to experience. Local businesses and members of the community sponsor the event, which helps raise funds for the officers of the Jeffersonville Police Department.  The event is open to anyone who wants to participate, run or walk.
