Is everyone as excited as we are!?

Alright so we would like to clarify some questions we have been asked. You do NOT have to live within the City of Watauga to be able to participate in our program. Once the meetings start back up it will be every other Tuesday from 6 to 9 pm. Previously it was every week but we understand that is a large commitment so we would like to scale back to every other week. Lastly there will be an upcoming date set for an open house so everyone is invited to check out what the cadet program is about and meet our new lead mentor Officer Griffin.

Once again if anyone is interested in joining the program it's 14-20 year olds and contact Officer Griffin at [email protected] or leave a voicemail at 817-514-3127.

*Pictured is K-9 Kai who is just a big ole good boy. He will be attending some of our training with the cadets and may even give everyone a demonstration on how much of a good boy he is 😁
