The deadline to register for the upcoming Can-Am Police Fire Games this summer is looming.
Organizers are asking for first-responders to sign up for events by tomorrow. They are specifically looking for athletes for Olympic weightlifting and Cross-Fit.
Chairman of the games Sheriff Mike Slupe says that the board will look at trimming certain events if there are not enough participants.
But, he says the games are open to more than just local first-responders.
“International, federal, state, municipal levels of all law enforcement, firefighters, EMS, corrections, and their families 18-years and older are eligible,” Slupe said. “And retired first responders are al eligible.”
The games are spread all throughout Butler County and run from July 15-21. Learn more about the Can-Am Police Fire Games on their website.
