Kentucky Run for the Fallen
Saturday September 7, 2024
Location: Smothers Park Shelton Memorial
Contact: Leslie McCarty
The Kentucky Run for the Fallen honors our fallen heroes. This is the same event as in previous years. We partner with the Daviess County Sheriff's Department, Owensboro Police Department, and Kentucky State Police to escort our entourage of runners and support vehicles. The run will begin at Smothers Park with an opening ceremony at 7 a.m. and from there runners will stop every two miles to honor fallen soldiers with a quick roadside ceremony saying the names of the fallen out loud. This is a two-day event coving 150 miles.
