The 36th Annual The Ben to The Shore Bike Tour on Sunday, July 23rd, 2023 is a charity bike ride that raises money to provide necessary financial relief for the families of fallen or critically injured first responders and cultivate positive relationships and interactions between police officers and the children in the communities they serve.

Families Behind the Badge Children’s Foundation provides resources to the families of the Fallen in their time of need. We witnessed their generosity when we lost Sean DeMuynck and then again when LMFD suffered a second tragic loss with Tom Royds. The Ben to the Shore Bike Tour will be held on July 23. We have a dozen of our members and their family members riding this year. The LMFD / LMPD team is approaching 50 members. Please join us in supporting this great cause. Consider making a donation either to the Team or to a specific Team member. We thank you for any consideration you give this.
