Sixth KSP “Cover the Cruiser” Raises More Than $8,400
16 KSP Posts and the State HQ Raised Money for Special Olympics in April

The sixth annual Kentucky State Police “Cover the Cruiser” event was another big success, raising $8,433.11 to support Special Olympics Kentucky athletes.
KSP posts across the state and the State Headquarters parked their cruises at designated locations like gas stations, grocery stores and Walmarts and encouraged the public to cover their cruisers with custom SOKY stickers. A minimum donation of $1 was required to put the sticker on the cruiser.
Special congratulations to Post 5 in Campbellsville, which topped all fundraisers with $1,392.03.
KSP initiated the ‘Cover the Cruiser’ fundraising event in 2020 when the annual Special Olympics Law Enforcement Torch Run was canceled due to COVID-19. Each year, The Torch Run escorts the Special Olympics Flame of hope to kick off the State Summer Games in Richmond, Ky.
State Troopers participated in the effort in conjunction with national law enforcement agencies throughout the United States, to raise awareness and funding for Special Olympics programs.
Our thanks to KSP and to everyone who helped support Cover the Cruiser this year. If you couldn’t make it out to one of the locations, but still want to support the effort, you can make an on-line donation here.
