About the Event

WCPAA Presents our 12th Annual Fun Run/Walk.

Kids 12 and under can run for free, we have provided an option to purchase a run shirt for kids.

Waukesha Citizens Police Academy Association, Inc. (WCPAA, Inc.) is a group of citizens that volunteer their time and talent to support the Waukesha Police Department and help raise funds for the department’s needs. In 2014, we hosted the inaugural Run From the Cops Fun Run/Walk. WCPAA’s goal was–and is–to unite the Waukesha Police Department with the citizens of Waukesha for a fun, light-hearted night. We are looking forward to the 11th anniversary of this run and we are excited to see everyone again this year.
