Congratulations Session 112!

Here they are involved with the torch run!

The Indiana State Police has offered young people an exciting, up-close look at law enforcement and the criminal justice system through its youth camps.

The camps help students gain respect for themselves and others through programs that demonstrate the rewards of hard work and dedication.

Respect for Law Camps are designed for students entering the 5th and 6th grades this fall. They feature demonstrations by Emergency Response Teams, Bomb Squads, Underwater Search and Rescue Teams and police dogs. The co-ed camps last three days.

Law Camps give students entering the 7th and 8th grades a behind the scenes look at the criminal justice system. These camps last four days and include field trips.

The camps are held at various locations in the state, including Vincennes University.

For additional information contact The Indiana Troopers Association at 800-671-9851. You can call The Youth Education and Historical Center at 317-899-8293. You can also contact your nearest Indiana State Police Post.

I’ve been through the police academy twice. It was the same academy but almost 10 years apart so things weren’t exactly the same. With this wealth of information one of the best tips I can give is to keep your mouth shut and pay attention. The only other important piece of information is to work hard, don’t give up and take it all seriously. If you are told to walk a certain way (never carry anything in your gun hand) or you have to button your coat up all the same, do it. I could go on, don’t wear your watch to PT. Be on time for everything. Bring everything you are told to bring. Don’t try to cut corner or be lazy. This goes for academics or practical exercises.
