Citizen's Police Academy Class Event Planned

Friends,

I was passed this message from John Slavin of the Cheltenham Township Police Department. I thought some might be interested. Take it away, John!

...

I am planning another Citizen's Police Academy Class in March and I am looking for a group of 10-15 residents who would be interested in learning about the Cheltenham Police Department and some of our special units. This is a FREE program. The program is held at the Cheltenham Police Administration Building.

This is a great opportunity to get a first-hand look at the Police Department policies, procedures, training and equipment during the two-hour evening classes. Coordinated by the Community Policing Unit, the academy offers instruction from more than a dozen Officers in topics like crime scene investigation, car stops, narcotics investigations, K-9 unit, ethics, SWAT, and more. Our local District Justices will provide instruction in both criminal law and civil law procedures, and will explain their role in the Criminal Justice System.

This is both a fun and informative program. Please pass this on to your neighbors.
