Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department
Palmdale & Lancaster Station’s
Community Academy XXV

March 8, 2011 – May 17, 2011

The Palmdale and Lancaster Sheriff’s Stations are in the process of selecting 50 interested residents from the station areas to participate in the Antelope Valley’s Twenty-Fifth Community Academy.

This program will focus on the Sheriff’s Department’s operational procedures as well as sessions ranging from criminal law to undercover operations.

Participants will go on a ride-a-long, tour a custody facility and participate in a role-playing exercise. The purpose of the Academy is to build a better understanding between the community and the Sheriff’s Department through education.

The class meets for twelve weeks and it is absolutely free. Classes will be held on Tuesday evenings from 6:30 P.M. to 9:30 P.M., at the Lancaster Sheriff’s Station, 501 W. Lancaster Blvd, Lancaster, CA, 93535.

If you are interested in this free class, contact Deputy Robbie Royster of the Palmdale Sheriff’s Station at (661)272-2520.

Due to the limited class space, not everyone will be able to participate; therefore you will be notified only if you are selected. Those applicants who are eligible but are not enrolled in the academy class will be placed on a list for possible future selection.

If you have any questions please contact Deputy Robbie Royster of the Palmdale Sheriff Station at (661) 272-2520.

Applications can be obtained and returned at:
