A message from our School Resource Officer, Deputy Tyler Johnson:
The Stearns County Sheriff’s Explorers is a program that offers our local youth, ages 15-21, the opportunity to experience law enforcement by giving them a first-hand view of operations, procedures and tactics. More so, our program helps teach our youth trust, honor, self-confidence and integrity…to name a few. Members of our post will have the opportunity to participate in ride-alongs with our deputies as well as work various public events within our community. If you know a young person who might benefit from this, please share this information!
