The 5K-9 Race is held in remembrance of our fallen K-9 Officer, Sgt. Benton Bertram, who lost his life bravely serving his community on Dec. 12th 2018. Ben's love of dogs inspired this event to be dog friendly & encourages participants to bring their furry friends to run/walk the race! That's why it's called a 5K-9!*All Ages Welcome!
Dogs of ALL breeds & sizes welcome!
Walk, Jog or Run
Free Shave Ice 🍧 for all participants after the race provided by Yello Sno!
Funds raised from this year's race will go to benefit two causes:
550Foundation.org
550 Foundation is a 501c(3) non-profit, started in honor of Sgt. Bertram, with a mission to provide free fully trained K-9's, free training & equipment to law enforcement K-9 Divisions in Indiana.
