The Run Crime Out of Roseville 5K and 10K fun run/walk will continue this year at Roseville’s Royer Park on Saturday, July 4. 

Originally founded to support anonymous tips, this fun-filled event has expanded to also raise funds to purchase specialized equipment used by local law enforcement, provide scholarships for youth, and educate participants on crimes affecting the community. 

With varying registration fees—from free to $100, depending on age and number of teammates—participants of all skill levels are encouraged to run or walk alongside local officers. The 10K will start at 7:20 a.m. and the 5K at 7:45 a.m., while the one-mile kids’ fun run will begin (led by the Roseville Police Department) at 8:40 a.m. and quarter-mile fun run (led by Roseville SWAT) at 8:45 a.m. 

Families are encouraged to create teams and stay after for the Independence Day Parade, followed by bounce houses, games and food! Event Manager Breann Zweck specifically enjoys watching kids race police officers. 

“I love when the kids beat them…and watching all the officers lead the warm-up stretch.” She encourages community members to come out and show their support. For more information and to register, visit runcrimeoutofroseville.com or email [email protected]
