Greetings

Welcome to the website of the Thunder Bay Police Youth Corps. Our organizations motto is “Lead by Example” and our cadets do just that by volunteering their time in the community of Thunder Bay .
As an organization we had our start in 1994 and meet every Wednesday at the Moose Hall on Fort William Rd. between 7:00 pm and 9:00 pm from Sept.-May. We offer an environment that is both respectful and educational as well as being focused on possible service.
We are sponsored by the Rotary of Thunder Bay, The Police Services Board, The Police Association, The Moose Hall, as well as N.O.S.A., the Northern Ontario Sportsman Association and we are supported by the board of directors that generally represent these groups.
We offer a safe and structural program in which our cadets are outfitted in uniforms and participate in drill exercises as well as law enforcement related presentations put on by senior members of the Corps as well as a number of guest speakers who represent the law enforcement community.
We have had several members throughout the years the Corps has been in existence go on to law enforcement careers with the Ontario Provincial Police, The City of Thunder Bay Police and the Treaty Three Police Services.
We accept young people between 13 and 15 years of age to start as members and they can continue until they are 19.
We regularly have cadets who have by Grade 10 satisfied their volunteer requirements for 40 hours to earn their diploma.
These cadets are recognized by other groups within our community as respectful, mature and polite young people who truly exemplify our Corps motto of “Lead by example”. I encourage parents who may be interested to drop by on any Wednesday between 7:00pm-9:00pm .

Commanding Officer
