Kentucky State Police announced the 2023 Trooper Island Fundraiser Vehicle. “A 2023 GMC Sierra Denali pickup truck. It’s white in color, a gorgeous truck, one of the top-of-the-line models that GMC makes. It’s around a $68,000 vehicle. All the proceeds go to Trooper Island which is our under-privileged camp for 10 to 12 year old young Kentuckians. For one week, they have an opportunity to hang out with law enforcement and just have a big time. It’s great for the Troopers, it’s great for the kids and it wouldn’t be possible without this fundraiser,” said Master Trooper Jonathan Biven. Tickets will be sold until August 27th. Tickets are $10 and are available at any KSP Post or online at https://trooper-island-inc.square.site/.
