This Memorial Day, we take time to reflect and honor the men and women who gave their lives in service to our country. Their courage, sacrifice, and commitment to something greater than themselves have helped preserve the freedoms we hold dear today.

From all of us at the Mountain View Police Department, we remember with gratitude those who made the ultimate sacrifice, and we extend our deepest respect to the families who continue to carry their legacy forward.

Such a great morning yesterday supporting the @SONorCal with @MountainViewGov and @MountainViewPD #LawEnforcementTorchRun

[Mountain View Police @MountainViewPD]

The Mountain View Police Department is excited to have taken part in the 2026 Torch Run, championing the incredible athletes of Special Olympics and embracing the values of inclusion, bravery, and community.

This year, for the first time, we were proud to feature a dedicated walking route through beautiful Downtown Mountain View, bringing more of our community together in a meaningful and visible way.

Each stride we take in this event empowers these athletes to pursue their dreams and reinforces our commitment to serving with compassion. Together, we can illuminate the path for these remarkable individuals. Let’s shine a light on the spirit of Special Olympics Northern California!
