ACADEMY GRADUATES

Members of the 2015-B Hot Springs Citizen’s Police Academy, conducted by the Hot Springs Police Department, gather in the HSPD lobby shortly after their graduation from the 12-week program. The class is the 15th group to complete the program since it began in 2006. The course includes 36 hours of classroom instruction, knowledgeable speakers and demonstrations that offer a unique insight into the operations of the police department. Students come to a three-hour class every Thursday. Anyone interested can register at the HSPD’s website at http://www.hotspringspolice.com or stop by the department at 641 Malvern Ave.
