Sheriff Johnson announces first annual Rick Haggard Memorial Run
Sheriff Jim H. Johnson announced a first annual Rick Haggard Memorial Run set for Aug. 29, 2026, in a Facebook reel shared by his office.
The short post provided the event name and date but did not include details about location, start time, registration or any beneficiaries. Memorial runs are commonly held to honor the memory of an individual, bring communities together and raise funds or awareness for causes connected to the honoree.
Sheriff Johnson’s announcement signals local law enforcement involvement in a community event that may draw residents, volunteers and public-safety partners. County sheriffs are elected officials who oversee law enforcement services at the county level, and their offices often organize or support public events that foster community relations.
Organizers typically publish additional information about routes, entry fees, safety measures and beneficiary organizations in the weeks before an event; those specifics were not available in the reel. We will provide more information as it becomes available.
