Hoosier Kids Invited To Sheriff's Association Camp This Summer

The 40th Annual Indiana Sheriffs’ Association Youth Leadership Camp happens in Warren County, Indiana in June.

(Undated) - The Indiana Sheriffs’ Association will be partnering with Indiana Donor network to celebrate their 40th Annual Indiana Sheriffs’ Association Youth Leadership Camp.

The camp is for both boys and girls who are currently in grades 7 and 8 and are interested in learning more about a possible career in law enforcement.

The camp also provides a very meaningful experience as well as relationships with other campers from throughout the state and sheriff officers who serve as counselors and instructors.

Indiana Donor Network coordinates organ, tissue and eye donation throughout Indiana and part of this mission includes education Indiana youth about donation and transplantation.

 Nationwide, more than 114,000 men, women and children are waiting for a lifesaving organ transplant and about 1,300 of those patients are Hoosiers.

There will be two camp sessions this year. The first session will be held June 25-28 at Pine Creek Camp in Pine Village, Indiana (Warren County), serving the northern part of the state.

The second session will be held July 9-11 serving the southern part of the state at Waycross Episcopal Camp in Morgantown, Indiana (Brown County).

Anybody interested in attending the camp should contact the Sheriff’s Office or your school counselor for an application and additional information. The Sheriff announced that arrangements can possibly be made to provide the camp registration fee through a local business or civic organization for anyone interested.
