Participation
In addition to community service projects, Explorer Members assist with traffic and crowd control at various events. Explorer members may also participate in the department’s Ride-Along program to observe police officers in the performance of their duties. While riding, Explorers also assist officers with responsibilities that a non-sworn employee can handle. Our Explorers regularly attend state and national competitions for valuable training.
