The Bastrop County Sheriff’s Office will once again be offering the Citizen Sheriff’s Academy training, from March 4 through May 27.
The classes offer information on all aspects of law enforcement in Bastrop County. Class participants will hear from deputies who patrol, who serve civil process and who staff the jail. Other interesting presenters will talk about department structure, criminal investigation, child abuse, victim services, crime prevention and working with identification and evidence at a crime scene.
Graduates of Citizens on Patrol become the extra eyes and ears of the county to aid deputies in their efforts to help keep the community safe.
The classes are informative and a great learning tool about how law enforcement officials work to make this a better county on a daily basis.
The class is free and runs each Thursday night from 7 – 10 p.m. These classes tend to fill up fast, so call Deputy Wayne Wood at 549-5069 for more information or to sign up.
