LETR Rio Rancho Police Department hosted the event that brought motorcycle officers from all over the state to train and compete in numerous obstacle courses.

The event raised over $7,800 with proceeds going to benefit SONM athletes and sports program. Funds were raised through participant registration fees, local business sponsorships, and merchandise sales.

Special thanks to RRPD officer Ben Sanchez for organizing the event, and for LETR Agency Coordinator Lana Elder for bringing LETR on board.

On Saturday, March 14th LETR officers from Albuquerque Fire Department joined forces with a number of police agencies (aka Team NM Public Safety) to take on an all-star team from the Outpost Ice Arena in a friendly hockey game to benefit Special Olympics.

Team NM Public Safety edged out the All-stars 4-3 in an action packed game that nearly went into overtime.  Fans were on the edge of their seats for the all three periods.

Despite ending in a 4-3 game, both teams participated in a "just-for-fun" shootout that gave the crowd an extra dose of excitement. The game raised $1,000 for Special Olympics.

Special thanks to the Outpost Ice Arena for donating the ice time and its staff, and additional thanks to volunteer official Dan Allison and Seth Martinez, as well as volunteer photographer Scott Adamson.
