Operation Santa's S.L.E.D.'s 2025 Pedal for Presents Memorial Bike Ride and Picnic signature event, taking place on July 20, 2025, at Elm Ave Park in Delmar, NY is a 46-mile journey that supports both our annual Christmas program and year-round emergency assistance for law enforcement families in crisis.

The impact of our work is profound and deeply personal. In 2024 alone, we provided crucial support to 11 law enforcement families in crisis, including 29 children - 15 of whom were facing their first Christmas without their father. These statistics represent real families in our community who found hope and support during their darkest moments through our programs.

The funds raised through this event help us continue this essential work, bringing joy to families during the holiday season and providing crucial support to law enforcement families experiencing hardship throughout the year. The ride features a special tribute at its midpoint - the Police Officer Memorial Wall - where we will pay tribute to fallen officers. The day concludes with a community picnic bringing together riders, volunteers, and families that Operation Santa's S.L.E.D. has supported since 2017.
