The Modesto Police Department Explorer Post #219

A Great Opportunity for Young Adults

Explorers Post #219

Modesto Police Department’s Explorer Post #219 is an invaluable experience for young adults, ages 16-21 years old, who are interested in a law enforcement career. Explorers are involved in community activities that prepare them for the future while learning effective communication skills and the basics of law enforcement and leadership. They also gain incredible relationships with people they look up to and may even work with in the future. Modesto Police Explorers participated in many activities throughout 2007, including: providing security at national holiday parades, the Riverbank Wine and Cheese Festival, and X-Fest.

In addition, the Explorers participated in scenarios with community police academies, and by working with different units throughout the police department, such as the S.W.A.T. Team and Reserve Officers, received valuable training experience. The Explorer Post had over 200 Beanie Babies donated to them by a caring citizen. In turn, the Explorer Post proudly donated a majority of the Beanie Babies to Stanislaus County Child & Family Services to be given to children who are abused, neglected, and taken out of their homes. It is through experiences like these that the Modesto Police Department Explorer Post #219 will continue the tradition of law enforcement, following the Law Enforcement Code of Ethics for life.
