    Default Police academy!



    Well its been finalized. I passed the oral board interview and was accepted into the police academy. I start august 14th. Has anyone here went through it or have some insight on what to look forward to or not? Eventually my goal is to become a park ranger or even better a game warden.

    Thanks everyone. The academy I'll be going to is red rocks. The oral board was really nerve racking at first but not to bad. It was a lot of scenerio questions and what would I do followed by them writing and not saying much. My goal is to be working in gilpin county and then moving to game warden, but first 18 weeks of h#$%.

    Congratulations! One of my good friends went through Red Rocks this past spring and now works for the Frisco PD. He got his B.S. a couple years ago, but didn't go to the academy right away because a lot of the agencies weren't hiring. He loved it. Get ready to have some fun. (and be really tired)
