Spring Grove Explorers Post

The Spring Grove Police Department is currently accepting applications for the first Spring Grove Explorer Post program.  The Explorer Post will provide the youth of the community an opportunity to interact with the members of the Police Department. The goal of the interaction is to create a positive relationship between the Police Department and program participants. The Post is a valuable tool in merging the law enforcement community to the youth who display an interest in the profession.

Members of the Explorer Post meet once a month and receive training in the various functions of law enforcement. The education that an Explorer receives provides valuable insight into the daily operations of a law enforcement agency.

Explorers are called upon to demonstrate their knowledge and skills by participating in law enforcement-related activities including: traffic direction, crowd control and crime prevention functions.

Ages 14 to 20, are welcome. Interested in joining? Would you like to know more? Either call Officer Lee Redlin at 815.675.2596 or send an email to lredlin@springgrovevillage.com
