Stafford Township Police Kick Off 12th Annual Youth Police Academy

by Stafford Police Department

Monday morning kicked off our 12th Annual Stafford Township Youth Police Academy.

Day 1 started with forty junior cadets learning military etiquette and practicing facing movements with Sergeant John Morrin and Sgt. Phil Mauro.

Cadets then took a full tour of the police department, and had the chance to investigate a mock crime scene with Detectives Drew Smith and Al Jillson.

After lunch, we had a special visit from the N.J. Department of Corrections K-9 Unit. A giant thank you to these officers for taking the time out of their day to talk to our kids and put on an amazing K-9 Demonstration.

The day was concluded by a visit from Pelicans Snowballs.
