Gartell III, Steven Orrence, Jessica Sansbury and Diana Marshall. The four were inspired to create the mural after Diana, whose brother is a client at JBC, visited the center for her brother's annual meeting in October 2010 and noticed the 15' high and 60' bare production wall. She mentioned that she was interested in doing a mural to Jeanne Dalaba, (the CEO of JBC since 1999) and the idea grew from there. Jeanne's only conditions were that the artists not paint anything offensive, not use profanity, and include Waldo somewhere in the mural. The artists then coordinated, planned and started painting.</div><div style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 1.7; margin-bottom: 1.7em;"><img _mce_src="http://frederickads.files.wordpress.com/2011/01/artists1.jpg" alt="" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1152" height="418" src="http://frederickads.files.wordpress.com/2011/01/artists1.jpg" style="border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; clear: both; color: #444444; display: block; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; line-height: 1.7; margin-bottom: 2px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; margin-top: 0px; max-width: 100%;" title="artists1" width="249" /></div><div style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 1.7; margin-bottom: 1.7em;">Artists pictured above: Benjamin F.

During this day, graduates took part in simulated scenario based traffic stops and call for services exercises using the instruction and techniques taught during the program. Graduates also took part in a firearm safety class and had the opportunity to handle and shoot several different types of firearms. At the conclusion of the day, graduates received certificates of completion.<br /><br />The Citizens Police Academy is a ten (10) week program designed to educate participants on the many facets of the law enforcement field which includes laws of arrest, DUI/DWI enforcement, search and seizure, use of force, and much more. It also informed the participants of the makeup of the Frederick Police Department and the community it serves.
