Anyone interested in a career in law enforcement can attend an open house at the New Philadelphia Post of the State Highway Patrol on Thursday.
It’s from 3 to 6 p.m. at the East High Avenue Post where guests can see the inside of a patrol car and possibly a helicopter if weather permits.
Trooper Matthew Clapper says recruiters will be there.
The rest of the community can also attend to learn more about the Highway Patrol and check out the tools Troopers use for their job.
Clapper says the State Highway Patrol is down in numbers so they’re looking for some new recruits who are of noble character and looking to serve the state of Ohio.
