If you want to get an inside look of the Flagler County Sheriff’s Office, then sign up for the Sheriff’s Citizen Academy.
The Sheriff’s Citizen Academy is a six week behind-the-scenes look at the daily operations of all areas of the FCSO, according to a news release by the FCSO.
Participants will visit the Sheriff's Office’s communications center and detention facility; learn about district policing, the investigative services division, drug and gang enforcement, victim services and SWAT. The motor unit and K-9 unit will give live demonstrations, and each participant gets a ride-along with a deputy.
Classes, which begin on March 13, are from 6 p.m. until 9 p.m. every Tuesday and Thursday.
“The Sheriff’s Citizens Academy is a great program that offers the community a behind the scenes look at what our employees do each and every day,” Sheriff Rick Staly said in a release.
The Sheriff’s Citizen Academy is accepting applications until March 9. You can download an application from the Flagler County Sheriff’s Office website, and for more information, visit http://www.flaglersheriff.com/public-interest/citizens-academy
