LAKEPORT, Calif. – The Lake County Sheriff’s Office recently completed its Summer 2016 Citizens’ Academy.

Sixteen Lake County citizens completed the 14-week course.

The course allowed the citizens a unique insight into the day-to-day operations within various areas of the sheriff’s office, as well as provided information regarding issues facing law enforcement and the judicial system today. 

The Citizens’ Academy helps bring the communities of Lake County closer to their sheriff’s office with each graduating class. 

The next academy is set to begin in the summer of 2017.

If you are interested in attending, check the Lake County Sheriff’s Office Web site, www.lakesheriff.com , or the sheriff’s office Facebook page early in 2017.

Applications won’t be accepted until spring of 2017.
