RCMP Youth Academy

This event is designed for high school students (age 16-18) who are interested in potential careers in police work, law enforcement, or corrections. Students who attend the Academy experience a variety of activities that a police cadet would experience, including fitness training, defensive tactics, application of the law, emergency response, and K-9 demonstration. Guests from a variety of related services provide insight into opportunities in the field. Uniform (t-shirt and hat), lunch, and snacks are provided.
