One Day Closer

The Academy move is getting closer; we’ll be occupying our space on Tuesday of next week. We have two work crews coming in to help use clean out the Uhaul and move our equipment on to the 2^nd and 3^rd floors. One crew is from Morrisville P&P and one is from the Windsor Service Camp. Thank you

Hopefully, we’ll have our new phone numbers so we can post them soon for those who have been trying to call us.

I thought I would talk about our new main class room. The room should allow comfortable seating for up to 40 participants. We are moving forward with a learning technology update. We’re getting a smart board for this room and hope to set up some interactive activities with other sites and online training. This one room alone is a large upgrade to our department’s training capabilities. Did I tell you we’re also getting a second class room and two smaller meeting/break out spaces?

There are two cells left for us to do training exercises, the control room is still intact and can be used for training, and we’re going to set up some displays outside our main class room for the Honor Guard. Maybe Cert (tactical and HN) will want to do something?

It’ll be great to have a place to put some of our Vermont corrections history on display. The Windsor Service Camp is sending up a restored fire apparatus from the Old Windsor Prison.

So, come up and check us out, just don’t be surprised if the place is still a little disorganized, we’ll have everything up and running real soon. Remember the 103^rd will be here on August 10^th and we’ll be ready for them.

Stay safe
