Kennedy declared this week National Police Week fifty-seven years ago, designating May 15 as Peace Officers Memorial Day.<\/a><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/adfsolutions.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Police-Week-2019-1.png\" alt=\"Police Week 2019 Highlights\" width=\"400\" style=\"width: 400px; float: right; margin: 10px 0px 10px 10px;\">In part, this event exists in order to honor the unfortunate number of police officers that have fallen within the line of duty. Police Week also provides&nbsp;officers an opportunity to wind down and catch up with their colleagues. For example, Police Week Tent City offers live music, food, and beer. On May 15th, the two-hour long memorial service commemorating fallen police officers will begin at 11:00 a.m. Here are the five things you need to know about Police Week 2019:<\/p>\n<h3><strong>1. All Are Welcome&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>All law enforcement officials are welcome. This includes current and former personnel. Even police officers from around the world attend and this week&#8217;s event included police from as far away as Australia.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>2. Humble Beginnings<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>What we know as a gigantic celebration today began as a somber gathering of merely 120 members of law enforcement and their supporters. Today, this&nbsp;Police week is celebrated&nbsp;by anywhere from 25,000 to 40,000 people throughout the United States.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>3. Events Happen Around the County<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The biggest events take place in Washington, DC. Check with your community or local police department&nbsp;to find local events to attend.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><strong>4. Look Forward to All Types of Events<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Events range, but include tours, a 5k run, vigils, seminars, open houses and various activities for all who want to participate. Many of these family-friendly events feature live music, food, and plenty of beer for the grown-ups!&nbsp; Last night,&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><strong>5. Police Week Tent City<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The Fraternal Order Of Police DC Lodge #1 in Washington DC holds daytime and evening events for police officers. Police Week Tent City begins May 13 and ends on May 15, taking place in Washington, DC.
