Explorers Sheriff Larry Maggi is proud to be a sponsor for the Sheriff's Law Enforcement Explorer's Post. The post is affiliated with the Boy Scouts of America and was organized to give young men and women the opportunity to learn about law enforcement as a career.
Explorers attend classes and seminars on law enforcement subjects.
They assist the Washington County Sheriff and other law enforcement agencies with areas of searching for lost people, parades, crime prevention programs and other functions directed by the Washington County Sheriff. Explorers also participate in a ride-along program, where the explorer rides with a Sheriff Deputy while on duty. Explorers may also attend the National Law Enforcement Conference that is conducted by the Boy Scouts, so that they can compete with other law enforcement agencies around the country.
