Over 230 law enforcement officers from 34 police agencies throughout Minnesota and Wisconsin will form 18-teams and participate in the 4th Annual Cory Slifko Memorial Softball Tournament to honor the late South St. Paul Police Sergeant Cory Slifko who lost his battle with PTSD in 2019. Last year, the event raised $53,000 to create awareness of PTSD among first responders. All proceeds will be donated to the Invisible Wounds Project and Wellness that Fits, a support services provider for public safety professionals.
The event will take place on Saturday, September 14, 2024 at Stelzel Fields, 19200 Centerfield Court, Farmington. It begins with an opening ceremony at 8:00 a.m. with games throughout the day and the championship game scheduled for 8:30 p.m. The event offers games for people of all ages, concessions, and a raffle of donated items. Admission is free and the public is encouraged to attend.
