Honoring the Fallen 5K

Fifth Annual Clermont Honoring the Fallen 5K

Join the Clermont Police Department for the Fifth Annual Clermont Honoring the Fallen 5K, taking place in the heart of beautiful Downtown Clermont.

Formerly known as the Conrad Buckley Legacy Scholarship 5K, this year’s event honors the nearly 80 law enforcement officers who have lost their lives in the line of duty in 2025.

All proceeds and donations benefit Concerns of Police Survivors (C.O.P.S.) and the Code 4 Initiative, both of which provide critical support to officers and their families in times of need.
