Post by: mackler on March 08, 2009, 11:06 PM NHFT
From the March 2 Express:

The Manchester Police Department will hold its 13th session of its free Citizens Police Academy starting on March 25.  All classes for the 10-week program designed to inform residents about the role and duties of the police department in the community will be held on Wednesday evenings from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. at the Manchester Police Department located at 351 Chestnut St.

The course is designed to be informational only, and filling out an application is required for participation.

Why base your decision to participate on what other people are doing?

It's more fun to have someone else there so that it's not me and people who think the police do an excellent job...

I was going to sign up, but decided they require too much information.
