A unique charitable event is bringing local law enforcement officers and the fitness community together on Saturday, July 16, 2022, to benefit the Sexual Assault Resource Center (SARC). The “Battle of the Badges” fundraiser will be held at Row House College Station. Lindsey LeBlanc, owner of Row House and Executive Director of SARC, combined her passion for fitness and serving the community by organizing a rowing competition involving all four law enforcement entities in the Brazos Valley to support the mission of the Sexual Assault Resource Center.
The Bryan Police Department, Brazos County Sheriff’s Office, College Station Police Department, and Texas A&M University Police Department will gather a team of six individuals to raise funds to support the Sexual Assault Resource Center and compete for three categories in a 5K rowing competition. Those categories include the fastest team time rowed, fastest individual time rowed, and highest amount of money raised. Awards will be given at the end of the event. Each law enforcement entity is asked to fundraise through donation “votes” for their team.
This event will be held on July 16, 2022 at 10:45 AM at Row House College Station and is open to the public. The competition will begin promptly at 11:00 AM with prizes awarded at 12:00 PM. Food, family-friendly activities, and more will be available. Limited space is available, however the event is open to the public. To reserve a ticket, community members can select a free ticket on the donation page. Donations are collected through https://givebutter.com/battleofthebadges and the public is encouraged to vote for their favorite law enforcement team leading up to July 16th.
