The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department Medical Services Bureau is seeking financial support for the Medical Services Bureau 2012 Baker to Vegas Challenge Cup Relay running team.
The 28th annual Challenge Cup Relay is an international running event involving local, state, and federal law enforcement agencies, as well as teams from other countries. The 120 mile relay race travels across the California desert beginning in Baker California, ultimately finishing in Las Vegas. On April 21 and 22, 2011, two-hundred-seventy (270) teams and support personnel will descend on Las Vegas in pursuit of the coveted Challenge Cup Relay mug, and a chance at first place. Over 7,000 runners and 4,000 support staff will be involved in the 2012 Challenge Cup Relay. In all, over 20,000 people will experience this event first hand. The Challenge Cup Relay is a Sheriff’s Department sanctioned event.
Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department Medical Services Bureau embarked on a historic endeavor by fielding its first ever Challenge Cup Relay race team in 2011 and will continue that challenge in 2012. Medical Services Bureau is the largest unit within the Sheriff’s Department with1,750 medical professionals. We will field a team consisting of Deputy Sheriff’s, Doctors, Nurses, and other medical personnel.
The Medical Services Bureau running team is in need of transportation, lighting, and communication equipment, as well as team running attire, to participate in the race.
