This includes marching exercises, defensive tactics, investigating crimes, mock accidents/crime scenes, K-9 demonstrations, a field trip to a local ropes course and much more. There will be NO swimming during Junior Police Academy. Breakfast and lunch will be provided. Parents will need to provide their own transportation, snacks, and water bottle for their child.
