Homeschool Fair Planned in Biglerville
If your son or daughter is interested in law enforcement, one of two summer camps offered by the PA State Police may be a good fit.
Camp Cadet is for ages 11–15 and the Elmer Hafer Youth Camp is for ages 15–17. Camp Cadet follows a paramilitary format similar to the State Police Academy, while the youth camp is a more advanced, specialized program for teenagers interested in law enforcement or military careers.
For more information and applications for both camps, please use this link:
