various age categories, and an award will be given this year
to the team that raises the most money. A tot trot provides fun
to the youngest of athletes. And every year t he Police Officer
of the Year Award is given to the officer who has displayed
exemplary qualities of professionalism, courage and/or has
gone above and beyond the call of duty.
This fundraiser is held each year with the support and
participation of the Atlanta Police Department through a
relationship that was forged in 1980 through the “Give Our
Police a Hand” campaign. The purpose of the campaign
was to provide a program that honors police officers and
encourages Atlanta citizens to support those individuals who
protect them. The Legal Runaround got its legs in 1998 as a
fundraiser to support that campaign and provides scholarships
to children of police officers who have been disabled or killed
in the line of duty. Visit www.atlantabar.org to register today!
