BLESSING OF THE BADGES

Beginning in 2008, The City of Ludington has held an Annual Blessing of the Badges Ceremony and events to honor local public safety personnel. From Fire Fighters to Law Enforcement to Military to Emergency Medical Technicians, the event honors all of those who put their lives on the line each day to keep our communities safe.
