Motorcycle riders are invited to join the fun on May 21st at the Sugar Land Citizens’ Police Academy Alumni Association’s (SLCPAAA) Sixth Annual Law Enforcement Memorial Ride (LEMR). In honor of National Police Week, this police escorted motorcycle ride through the community honors all law enforcement officers who lost their lives in the line of duty.

The SLCPAAA is a 501(c)(3) organization formed to “enhance relations between the community and the Sugar Land Police Department” and to “assist all law enforcement agencies.” Members of SLCPAAA help the police department with volunteer activities through service and raising funds. Service activities include warrant call out and supporting the International Conference of Police Chaplains, while fundraising activities include LEMR, merchandise sales and raffles. Funds raised are used for needed items such as bikes for the restarted bike patrol and to help fund the annual police awards banquet.

LEMR registration is on Saturday, May 21st from 2 to 4 pm at Republic Harley Davidson, located at 12707 Southwest Freeway in Stafford, with kickstands up at 4:05 pm. The first 100 registrants get a free a swag bag and a T-shirt.

The event concludes at Constellation Field with a Parade of Chrome around the warning track inside the stadium at 6 pm. The registration fee includes a ticket to the game. Come be a part of LEMR and “rev” your engine inside the stadium.
