Arrested Development
Thank you for checking out the Arrested Development Team Page. We are honored to have you join us as we raise awareness and support for the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund and our work to Respect, Honor and Remember the service and sacrifice of our brave men and women in law enforcement.
I am pleased to announce that Vincent D'Onofrio from Law & Order: Criminal Intent has joined our team. Please consider joining Vince and our team to raise funds and come out for a great weekend, Oct 12 - 13 as we celebrate the law enforcement profession.
Team Captain, John Shanks
DONATE/SPONSOR HERE
"I have a profound amount of admiration for the men and women of law enforcement who work tirelessly to keep us safe. I’ve played numerous law enforcement roles over my career and each one has given me greater respect for these dedicated individuals.
But unlike them, when we’re done shooting a scene, I go home. Unfortunately, every 56 hours a law enforcement officer doesn’t make it home.
The Law Enforcement Ride & Run to Remember is my chance to say thank you and support them in return. Help me celebrate their service and sacrifice by making a donation today."
