Kansas Law Enforcement Memorial Day is May 4th

 

Kansans are observing Kansas Law Enforcement Memorial Day with a ceremony in Topeka on the Statehouse grounds, Friday, May 4th.

 

Kansas Law Enforcement Memorial Day recognizes those law enforcement officials who have been lost in the line of duty defending our public safety.

 

Kansas’ Law Enforcement Memorial Day also coincides with National Police Week and National Peace Officers’ Memorial Day.  This year, National Police Week is being celebrated May 13-19th and National Peace Officers’ Memorial Day will be observed on May 15th.

 

We hope you will join us in honoring all of our Kansas law enforcement officials for their service and remembering those officers who have given their lives while working to make Kansas safe.
