For children who dream of going into law enforcement, Junior Police Academy offers an inside look on Tuesday, June 25, 8 am to 4 pm, at the Golden Valley Police Department (GVPD), 7800 Golden Valley Rd.
The event, limited to 20 participants ages 10-13 (priority given to Golden Valley residents), is a hands-on, interactive session that includes tours, demonstrations by police and K-9s, a mock crime scene and fingerprinting, information about SWAT and crime lab, and more. The day ends with “The Case of the Kidnapped Donuts,” a chance for the kids to solve a crime and eat the evidence afterwards.
