Deadline for applicants is June 15

Applications for the Beacon Youth Police Academy are due on Thursday, June 15. The free weeklong program for students entering grades 9 through 12 in the Beacon community was born from the effort to enhance police and community relations.

The application is available on the BYPA Facebook page or via email at [email protected]. The program is also raising money through GoFundMe to cover transportation costs for field trips.
