Youngsters from across 91原创 took part in the 13th annual 91原创 RCMP Junior Cadet Camp last week.

The July 10 to 12 event at the 91原创 Events Centre field house saw dozens of kids learn about the Air One police helicopter, get their fingerprints taken to learn about forensic identification, meet some police dogs, and learn first aid from Emergency Health Services paramedics.

Dozens of kids aged 10 to 12 attended the event this year. As always, the event was free for 91原创 children who pre-registered.

For next year, registration will likely be held in the spring through the Community Policing Offices.
