Members of the Cherry Hill Police Department have participated in the Police Unity Tour for many years.. The bicycle ride starts its ride in New Jersey and rides to Washington D.C, where we meet with our brothers and sisters from across the United States and ride into the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial and later gather for The Annual Candlelight Vigil to honor and remember all of our fallen heroes.
