Youth Police Academy July 12th – 15th

The Frederick Police Department would like to invite the media to our 8th Annual Youth Police Academy. This program provides youth ages 7-14 with a close up look at law enforcement and tools of the trade.

The youth will have the opportunity to learn what it is like to be a police officer by participating in scenarios, learning about stranger danger, internet safety, having a chance to see departmental equipment, watch a K-9 demonstration, dust for fingerprints, process a staged crime scene and receive information on departmental programs. All attendees will also have the chance to attempt a physical agility course.

The academy will offer 4 sessions: July 12th, 13th, 14th, and 15th from 9:00 am – 12:30 pm. The program will be held at the Charles V. Main Training Facility located at 6424 Plant Road, Frederick, Maryland.
