Academy recruit run and graduation set
The 49th Class of the Shreveport Regional Police Academy will take to the streets to raise money for the American Heart Association, just before they hit the streets to become Shreveport Police Officers.
The recruit run begins at 7:30 a.m. Friday, Dec. 20, at the Academy located at 6440 Greenwood Road. The recruits and their instructors will run through the Timber Line neighborhood located near the academy and down Pines Road, for a total of 5.5 miles.
Unlike previous recruit runs that stretched through Shreveport and ended at the Police and Fire Memorial downtown, this run will end at the academy. Recruits will finish up around 8:30 or 8:45 a.m.
The run precedes the recruits’ graduation from the academy, which is set for 9 a.m. Monday, Dec. 23. It is held in the Fire and Police Academy Auditorium.
