West Columbia Police Officers Foundation Chairperson Tim James said, “The West Columbia Police Officers Foundation is proud to offer the annual run. While it’s a fun and healthy opportunity, it’s also a great way for the community to support the mission of the Foundation, which is to provide training and other programs that benefit those who protect and serve us on a daily basis.”
West Columbia Police Chief Dennis Tyndall stated, “This is the Foundation’s 5th Annual 5K Run. The support from the community has been overwhelming this year with an anticipated 200 runners for this Saturday’s event. This year’s run coincides with Peace Officers Memorial Day, May 15th, which was established by President John F. Kennedy and the Congress of the United States in 1962. We thank you for your support.”
