In May 1997 the Police Unity Tour was organized by Officer Patrick P. Montuore of the Florham Park Police Dept., with the hope of bringing public awareness of Police Officers who have died in the line of duty and to honor their sacrifices. The Police Unity Tour started with 18 riders on a four day fund-raising bicycle ride from Florham Park, NJ to the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial in Washington D.C. which raised $18,000.00. Today, the Police Unity Tour has over 1100 members nationwide who make the trip. In late 2005, the Police Unity Tour pledged $5 million in support of the National Law Enforcement Museum. Inspired by our commitment and our motto, " We Ride For Those Who Died ", the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund has selected our organization to be the sponsor of the Museum's Hall of Remembrance. As of May 2010, the Police Unity Tour has donated over $8 Million Dollars.
History of Chapter 37
Chapter 37 was named in honor of the 37 Port Authority police officers who were killed in the line of duty on September 11, 2001 at the World Trade Center. Though we have been designated the New York chapter, our membership includes police departments from California, New Jersey and New Hampshire as well as New York. We also view ourselves as the 9/11/01 Memorial Chapter. The original Chapter 37 members are represented by members of the Port Authority NY/NJ, Huntington Beach CA, Glendale CA, Nassau County and the New York City Police Department. A pledge was made by the original members that Chapter 37 will always start the Tour at the World Trade Center to honor the seventy two law enforcement officers who made the ultimate sacrifice on September 11, 2001. WE WILL NEVER FORGET.
