Illinois State Police Fun Run 2017 with the Blues Brothers

How often does the Illinois State Police (ISP) completely shut down the interstate? The answer is pretty much never. The only time it’s ever done is for the President of the United States. That and once a year for The Illinois State Police Heritage Foundation (ISPHF) Motorcycle and Fun Car Run. For the entire run every road, on ramp and intersection is completely blocked from the public as the procession makes its way on the 200 mile journey down to the IL. Capital city.
This run benefits the Illinois State Police Memorial Park. The ISPHF Motorcycle and Fun Car Run is the one time each year when the ISP shuts down the roads to honor their fallen brothers. The ISPHF Fun Run couldn’t be for a better cause. More than 65 ISP officers have given the ultimate sacrifice while protecting the citizens of Illinois. The planned Memorial Park will serve as a place of peace and comfort for those who have lost a family member or friend. It will also serve as a public gathering site for visitors to remember the brave heroes.
