Join us for the Miles for Smiles 5K Run/Walk, a fun and family-friendly event supporting the Louisa County Sheriff’s Office Shop with a Cop program!
Every step you take helps bring holiday joy to local children. Proceeds from the race go directly to Shop with a Cop, where deputies and volunteers from LCSO and partnering agencies take selected Louisa County Public School students shopping for gifts for their families. After shopping, the children wrap the presents with their officer partners—creating smiles, memories, and brighter holidays for families across Louisa County.
