Ninth Annual Palm Springs Memorial Motorcycle Ride to Honor Fallen Officers
PALM SSPRINGS —Mark your calendars. The Palm Springs Police Officers Association, in partnership with community leaders and local sponsors, have announce the Ninth Annual Palm Springs Memorial Motorcycle Ride to honor fallen officers will take place on Saturday, Nov. 8.,
This annual event brings together riders, families, and community members to honor the lives and sacrifices of fallen law enforcement officers. The Memorial Ride has become a meaningful tradition in the Coachella Valley, combining a scenic motorcycle ride with a community gathering to celebrate remembrance, unity, and support for the families of the fallen.
The day will begin with registration at 72750 Dinah Shore Dr Unit 107, Palm Desert, CA 92211, followed by a memorial ride through the valley. Riders will return to the Cathedral City Community Amphitheater, where the community is welcome to join them for an afternoon of remembrance, live music, vendors, raffle prizes, and food. A bagpiper will play during the arrival to honor the solemn nature of the occasion, while the festival-style atmosphere encourages fellowship and connection.
“Each year this event grows, not just in attendance but in impact,” said Justin Gardiner, Event Organizer. “The Memorial Ride allows us to come together as a community to reflect, to remember, and to ensure the legacies of these officers live on.”
Proceeds from the event benefit the Palm Springs Police Officers Association Memorial Fund.
