In emergency situations they provide communications and support to local police departments. Explorers are involved in search and rescue operations with the State Police Dive Team, missing persons, aircraft crashes, and more. Explorers get to go to the Vermont Police Academy in Pittsford, VT for a week in July every year. This is not a summer camp, but it is a lot of fun. Explorers experience real life drama through a shadow program called the Explorer Ride Along program.
Explorers spend entire shifts with patrol officers while on patrol.
If this is something you think you might be interested in, come to a meeting to check us out. Call Patrolman Scott Fisher, Post Advisor, at 388-3191 if you have questions. The HUB is here to allow young people a place to gather and enjoy each other, engage in a game of pool or ping pong, watch a movie, work on a computer, or just hang out with friends. There are planned activities as well as a drop-in center. Visit Bristol Recreation's website page on The HUB for more complete information about activities.
