2010 Crime Stoppers Run coming up fast!  Don't miss it!
July 9, 2010
Where can you win one of 100 bicycles, eat all the Tyson Pork Chops your belly can hold, and watch 1000 of your neighbors having a blast running and walking for a good cause? The ninth annual Crime Stoppers 5k is where! Saturday August 7th starting at 7:30 AM we will be running and walking at Bass Street Landing in Moline to raise money for our reward fund. Because of the support of so many great sponsors we stand by our claim of having the very best post race party in the area. Along with a great shirt design and medals for all the kids, the TYSON post race party features mouthwatering pork chops, plenty of fruit and soda, pizza and subs pizza, and even adult beverages. While the party is on we will be handing out trophies and 100 brand new bicycles to kids 12 and under. We will also have a special surprise at the event this year you will not want to miss. Our Police and Fire guns and hoses challenge is in its ninth year and CRIME STOPPERS will christen the fastest department in the area, not some pretender. Print a race registration form from our website or sign up online at www.qccrimestoppers.com/race. Forms are also available at area police departments and the Dispatch/Argus offices. We really hope to see you there!



2009 Crime Stoppers Run
August 1, 2009
It rained. Nicole Carass sang the national anthem, the gun went off, and Derrick Grant in full Scottish regalia began piping the runners as they rushed to the east. Celebrity host Dan Kennedy from AM 1420 told the assembled crowd we had great running weather. As if on cue the rain started. The runners made it through, we made adjustments, and the post race party went on as scheduled. Kudos to the Tyson crew who managed to grill and deliver over 1000 pork chops and hot dogs. Pizza and Subs in Rock Island turned on the ovens early and flooded us with pizzas. Our volunteers really stepped up to make sure everyone was served as much as they wanted. The 100 new bikes were still a hit if a little wet. Ben Lloyd fresh off his Bix victory is now a three time winner of our race. Nancy Foxen took the honors as our first female to cross the finish line. The Davenport Fire Department claimed title to the fastest Department in the area finishing ahead of the Davenport and East Moline Police Departments. The Moline High School Cross Country Team squeaked by a team of area running coaches for first place in the community teams.  In all over 850 runners entered our 5k, I mile, or ¼ mile fun run. So many people make this run possible as we continue to grow. Tyson Foods, Wal-Mart, Rock Island County States Attorney, First Midwest Bank, Pizza and Subs, the Moline and East Moline Police Benevolents, QC CAP Council, Stoney Creek Inn, the Dispatch /Argus, City of Moline, and all our dedicated volunteers.



Saturday Serendipity, "Be a Detective"
March 21, 2008
On Saturday March 14th and March 21st,  twelve Moline third and fourth graders participated in "Be a Detective" workshop.  The workshop was held in conjunction with Saturday Serendipity which is organized by the Moline Council for the Gifted.  Moline Police Detective/Lieutenant Trevor Fisk and Crime Stoppers Detective Scott Williams showed the students how to lift and identify fingerprints, and explained the who-what-where-when of interviewing a suspect and a full-proof method to tell if someone is lying.  The students also learned about the accuracy of eye-witness testimony. The students were presented with a certificate of completion and a tee-shirt provided by Crime Stoppers.

CRIME STOPPERS 5K CELEBRATES 25 YEARS OF CRIME STOMPING

August 10, 2007
Wow! Almost 1000 runners and volunteers were on River Drive in Moline for our 6th annual 5k race, all to help us celebrate 25 years of Crime Stoppers and have a little fun. Quite a few blazed their way to glory in the 5k and one mile races. Even the little runners in the quarter mile fun run looked possessed after they caught a glimpse of the 100 bicycles in front of the stage. In the end Ben Lloyd was our winner with a time of 15:14. Some thought this was the course record until we researched and found that in 2003 Chris Wallaert set our course record with a 15:06. Our ladies winner was Jennifer Paul with a time of 17:56. In the highly contested race for “Fastest Police Department in the Quad Cities,” the Moline Police Department edged out Davenport Police Department by a mere five seconds. East Moline Police Department and the Rock Island County Sheriff’s Department will be back next year with a vengeance. Our numbers continue to grow and our great sponsors make it work. Thank you to Miller Container Corporation, Wal-Mart, Rock Island County States Attorney’s Office, Kerry Stoudt State Farm, Famous Dave’s BBQ, Pizza & Subs, Tyson, Mike Roberts Class Rings – Herff Jones, and Rock Island Country Market. A big thank you to the 100 Bicycle sponsors who made the giveaway possible and of course, Stoney Creek Inn, our host hotel. Alive and Wellness school of massage therapy, the Putnam and IMAX, Malcolm Jewelers, AD Huesing, and The  Dispatch, Argus, and The Leader. The race was emceed this year by CBS 4’s own sports director Jay Kidwell, and what a job he did! Jay is a pro and did a fantastic job. Alex, Mike, Austin, and Dan, hot off their Alleman High School talent show debut, were a great addition and a big hit this year as KISS. The start of the race would not be the same without Bagpiper Derrick Grant piping the runners to their best. Dawn Sandoval and LeAnn Wagner, our race Directors, and all the Crime Stoppers Board members are to be thanked for the time and extra effort put into this year's race. Above all, we want to thank all the runners, walkers and volunteers. Mark your calendars for August 2, 2008!  We hope to see you next year!
