Weekly Update: March 18, 2012
15 Explorers completed our first Explorer Academy on March
11! We learned the history of the
California Highway Patrol, basic Vehicle Code sections, and traffic
control. We even received an overview on
how Field Sobriety Tests and DUI Checkpoints operate, and how to safely
complete ride-alongs with officers!
Our next meeting is to be determined.
A list of events that we will be attending can be found here; please sign up for as many as you would like to do by contacting Officer Stark via email or telephone.
We had a taste of how a CHP Academy works, with 12 hour days
of instruction and PT from drill sergeants.
We even learned how to fill out CHP paperwork…our favorite part!
This academy allowed us to earn the patches that we wear on
our uniforms. We now officially and
proudly represent the California Highway Patrol as Explorers. Photographs of this academy will be posted soon.
Some notable names: Andrew Sahagun has been named Acting
Captain, Gabrielle Fluegel has been named Acting Lieutenant, and Dustin Stetina
has been named Acting Sergeant of our post.Our next meeting is to be determined.

Weekly Update: March 4, 2012
This weekend, March 10 and March 11, we have our first Explorer Academy. There will be 12 hours of instruction on both days; we start at 0600 and will be finished by 1800. Lunch will be provided. Please be in uniform, but bring workout clothes for PT (shorts, tee shirt, shoes). Attendance is pertinent in order to be able to work with CHP Officers on ridealongs and at DUI checkpoints. Please see this link to read the post about the Academy for more information.
As mentioned, participants must be in uniform at the Academy. If you are unable to acquire a uniform before the Academy, please call Officer Stark and speak with him, or email us here at chpexplorers@gmail.com. Please see this link to read the post about the uniforms for information on where to go for the uniform and what is required in the uniform.
Regardless of whether or not you are able to acquire a uniform prior to the Academy, all Explorers must maintain the same grooming standards as CHP Officers. Please see this link to read the post about what these standards are.
