Police academy is informative and interesting

To the editor:I recently attended the Citizens Police Academy offered by the Cape Girardeau Police Department.

The classes are interesting and give you a glimpse into the many responsibilities and duties of our law enforcement officers.

I would recommend the academy to anyone interested in learning how our police department is organized.

Upon completion of the classes, I have a greater appreciation for our police officers and the many services they provide to the citizens of Cape Girardeau.
