Welcome to the Kansas Police and Fire Athletic Association's official
website. The Kansas Police and Fire Athletic Association (KPFAA) would like to extend our invitation for you to
participate in our inaugural event "Heart of America Police and Fire Games" scheduled for Sept. 18-21 2008.
We will be hosting 13 events of both team and individual sports, for the purpose of fun, camaraderie
and the thrill of competition. We at the KPFAA are an organization that is in the business of
promoting lifestyles of health and fitness for our emergency service personnel.
Not only are we looking for the athletically inclined, but also police
and firefighters that want to start living a healthier lifestyle. The games will take some training and preparation,
but our age categories and our variety of events will allow the team member or individual the
opportunity to compete against competitors of their own age and abilities.
The Games will be a big, community-wide sponsored event, with the community planning something special
for those that choose to participate. So get a friend and start training. You have more than enough
time to prepare and make a lifestyle change of a healthier you.
Keep checking the website for further information as the countdown to September is moving our way.
It is July 1st and we have only one month left to sign-up before the deadline of AUGUST 1. We have free annual passes to the Sedgwick county Zoo for a family of five (2 adults and 3 children).
These passes will go to the first 15 individuals to sign up. We have fun and exciting games planned starting with our 5K run which will begin at Exploration Place and continue along the river.

After the race we will host a welcome dinner ($15) and Exploration Place will have discount tickets to see the award winning exhibit, Our Body The Universe Within. This will fascinate your mind as to how our bodies are
