In 2001, newly elected Sheriff Ricky Chastain saw a need for the youth of Laurens County to be better connected with Law Enforcement in a positive way and teamed with the Boy Scouts of America to charter Explorer Post 2008 which is still educating the youth of Laurens County today in the skills that it takes to not only be a good citizen but also a future Law Enforcement Officer.
An Explorer Post is fundamentally a Scout group for young adults, male or female, who are between 14 and 21 years of age and have completed the eighth grade. The mission of Exploring is to help young people mature at this particular stage of their lives to prepare them to become responsible and caring adults. This is done through a program of activities that helps youth pursue their special interests.
Explorer Post 2008 meets twice a month. At these meetings, Explorers are instructed on different topics related to the law enforcement field including: conducting traffic stops; completing paperwork; investigating traffic collisions; serving warrants; legal knowledge; and physical fitness.
Explorers get hands on experience through a variety of scenarios acted out before other Explorers and Post Advisors. They also assist in a variety of functions at the Sheriff’s Office to include traffic control at football games, parades and other community activities.
If you are interested in becoming a member of Explorer Post #2008 or would like to receive more information please contact Lt. Marty Crain.
