The Ontario Provincial Police in Fort Frances have put out a call for young people interested in working with them this summer.
The Fort Frances detachment plans to hire three students for its marine and bicycle patrols.
Constable Anne McCoy says it's an great opportunity for young people interested in policing.
"They get a lot of real great hands on experience going out onto the boat," says McCoy, "learning about different vessel enforcement. Out on the bike patrol, learning how to do community policing initiatives and curbing certain areas of crime. It's very interesting work and a great experience."
Students between the age of 15 and 24 can apply for the marine program while those 14 to 17 are eligible for the bike patrols.
Resumes must be at the detachment by Wednesday.
