Albion Police Exploring Post #911
Village of Albion, New York
 The Albion Police Exploring Post #911 was formed in November of 2002 by the Village of Albion, New York Police Department in
conjunction with the Albion Central School District and LFL/BSA.  The intent of law enforcement exploring is to educate and involve youth
in police operations, to interest them in possible law enforcement careers (police officer, deputy sheriff, police dispatcher, corrections
officer, prosecuting attorney, crime lab technician, etc.) and to build mutual understanding.  The education aspect provides Explorers with
knowledge of the law enforcement function in one's community whether one enters the field of law enforcement as a career or not.  
Through involvement, the exploring program establishes an awareness of the complexities of law enforcement service.
 The program objectives set forth by LFL/BSA and the Albion Police Department are as follows:
  • To further the Explorer's education.
  • To encourage the Explorer's participation in a rewarding and productive service activity.
  • To enhance the Explorer's preparation for future roles as citizens, community members, leaders, and in future law enforcement
    careers.
  • To create a better understanding between the police department and the youth of the community.
  • To provide a positive image of the Albion Police Department, as well as other law enforcement agencies, and its exploring post
    through community involvement.
  • To assist the Albion Police Department and Albion Central School District in any appropriate manner.
 The Explorers attend several community and school oriented events throughout the year.  Some of these activities include school sporting
and theatrical events and assemblies, parades and festivals, and various other community events.  Additionally, Explorers are trained in
several of the basic law enforcement tactics and procedures.
 All members in a law enforcement exploring program must be between the ages of 14 and 20.  The department, post, and school have set
other requirements as well.  Because Explorers are issued uniforms and are representatives of the Albion Police Department,
professionalism and safety are stressed.
