Event details
The Washington Police Explorers Post 2438 5k Run is scheduled for Saturday, May 16, 2026, in Washington, Missouri (ZIP 63090). The event start/finish location is listed as 301 Jefferson. The run is the inaugural 5k for the Washington Police Department explorer post. Entry fee is $40, and the price increases after April 26, 2026. A finisher medal is included with registration.
Purpose and awards
Proceeds will support sending explorers to the annual St. Louis Area Law Enforcement Explorer Academy, a week-long event in the St. Louis area. The academy costs the post roughly $450 per year; the post covers a majority of that cost so explorers can attend regardless of financial ability. The organizers hope to send six to seven explorers. The exploring program is for youth aged 14-20 and is covered under the Boy Scouts of America Learning for Life umbrella. Awards will be given to the top three male finishers and the top three female finishers. The run takes place the day before National Police Week begins.
