The funeral service for KCKPD Officer Hunter Simoncic will be at 10 a.m. Wednesday, Sept. 3, at Children’s Mercy Park, 1 Sporting Way, KCK.
Parking lots will open at 7:30 a.m. that day with stadium gates opening at 8.
A law enforcement processional starts 30 minutes after the conclusion of the service. The route will be posted once details have been confirmed.
Attendees should approach Children’s Mercy Park from State Avenue. Public parking will be located on the south side of the stadium in Blue Lot 2 on the grounds of the Kansas Speedway. Village West Parkway and France Family Drive will be closed to public traffic.
KCKPD announced that it encourages community members to display blue ribbons outside their homes and businesses as a sign of support of the Simoncic family and the men and women of the KCKPD. It is a small gesture, but powerful and unifying one, the department noted.
