Ohio Auxiliary - Wives Behind the Badge, Inc. Honors Law Enforcement in May

April 7, 2015 - PRLog -- The Ohio Auxiliary – Wives Behind the Badge, Inc. is proud to join one of the fastest growing initiatives for the organization to date. “Paint The Town Blue” will be held on Thursday, May 21, 2015 across the entire state with events happening throughout the month leading up to this date.

The Auxiliary is planning a Flash Mob 5K and support vigil, and a Blue Blood Drive. They hope to receive support from businesses and residents who will agree to display blue ribbons in windows and on doors throughout towns and cities, big and small. Cara Carl, Director of the Auxiliary shares that “we are excited to join this effort in OH by bringing as many people together as possible through these fun activities.”

Individuals or businesses who wish to participate are encouraged to email the Auxiliary or phone 614-636-1959 to arrange for delivery or pick-up of ribbons. Direct shipping is available for only $8 and provides the participant with a blue ribbon; pick-up at various public sites is available for only $5 and will be announced in the event group.

“Paint The Town Blue” is being held in conjunction with the parent organization’s event “Step Out in Blue”, which encourages supporters of law enforcement to simply wear blue on the third Thursday of each month. The event page can be found on Facebook under "Paint the Town Blue - Ohio".

The Ohio Auxiliary – Wives Behind the Badge, Inc. is a registered not-for-profit in the state of OH and was established to support law enforcement officers and their families.
