The single most important objective for the Thin Blue Line Ball is to allow fellow blue families to say goodbye to all who have fallen. The only authorized uniforms that evening are on the honor guard and pipes and drums band. All attendees are in formal attire (suit, tux, Sunday attire) as we are all simply blue family. Patches and rank mean nothing while we are all there. Brother/sisterhood and honoring sacrifice is why we are there.
2025 wil represent the 8th annual Thin Blue Line Ball. The event has grown from 160 to a sold out crowd of 700+ in 2023. Last year we saw seven states represented with viewership on live stream, and we hope to attract more in 2025. The event has grown so quickly that we are now in our 4th venue as we have outgrown each after just a year or two and that is great news for the event. We are confident the Thin Blue Line Ball has become one of the largest multi-agency/multi-state formal law enforcement ball in the Great State of Texas!
Each year we design a custom challenge coin for the event that is free with admission. We are continuing that tradition in 2025 as well.
After the opening ceremony we progress to the emotional, yet essential, memorial ceremony. We have the honor of having the Ft. Worth Pipes & Drums band playing during the ceremonies. From there we move into award presentations and a heartfelt and well deserved spouse ceremony honoring those who sacrifice along with us. This ceremony has been widely anticipated as we turn the tables on our LEO brothers/sisters. During this ceremony you will pin your spouse with the custom 2025 Spouse pin. Since our spouses are always pinning us in our careers we felt it appropriate to let them know what it feels like for an evening. After that we enjoy dinner and eventually......it's a party. We having a professional DJ supplying the music and a casino night set up and ready for non-award earning fun. All that with a free LEO raffle, silent auction, and a custom 2025 TBLB challenge coin!
