Law Enforcement Challenge

2004 National Challenge Winners Announced!
The judging is over and the results are in! Virginia agencies brought home more awards that any other state in the 2004 National Law Enforcement Challenge competition! Capturing 18 awards this year, Virginia agencies are leading the way in outstanding highway safety programs nationwide. Our congratulations go out to all the agencies that won state and national awards.

The VACP will begin preparing for next year's Challenge soon and wants to remind everyone to keep track of your 2005 activities for next year's entry now. The VACP will continue to offer more "How-To" workshops in the fall and winter to assist you in preparing your applications for 2005 (dates TBD). So, keep up the good work, collect and document your data starting now for the upcoming challenge competition.

Congratulations again for a job well done!  

Awards will be presented at the Highway Safety Awards Ceremony on Tuesday, September 27, 2005 from 5:00–7:00 p.m. at the International Association of Chiefs of Police Annual Conference in Miami, FL .
