Maywood Police Explorer Post No. 100

The Maywood Police Explorer Post No. 100 is a youth-based organization that began in December 1997. 

The Explorer Program was designed for young people ages 14-20 years old that have an interest in law enforcement.  The purpose of this program is to educate and involve young people in the police operations and to give them insight into law enforcement as a possible career.  Through the program, youth have the opportunity to become involved in community-based projects that enhance their knowledge and understanding of the world.  The experience gained through the program helps to prepare young people to assume leadership roles in the future.

In recent years, the Maywood Police Explorers have been participated in several community projects that have earned them recognition and praise from the Mayor and Board of Trustees.
