Annual Peace Officers Memorial Service
Every May during Peace Officer Memorial Month, the Arizona Peace Officers Memorial Board pays tribute to the peace officers who made the ultimate sacrifice.
Arizona honors fallen peace officers who have made the ultimate sacrifice at the annual Peace Officers Memorial Service at the Arizona State Capitol. Families and survivors of the fallen heroes are welcome the annual event to pay tribute. The somber ceremony, led by the Arizona Peace Officers Memorial Board, is held in Wesley Bolin Plaza at the Peace Officer Memorial.
