The Baker to Vegas Relay is the most positive event offered to law enforcement today. It provides officers motivation to maintain a physical fitness program to help them better perform their duties. The race has maintained its original ideals since it began in 1985 by focusing on teamwork, camaraderie, physical fitness and competition.
