This year the explorers brought home 1st place in Emergency Field <br />First Aid, 1st place in Interview and Interrogation, 2nd <br />place in Crisis Intervention Training, 2nd place in <br />Suspicious Activity, 2nd place in TCH and Edible Cannabis <br />Law, 5th place in Interview and Interrogation , and 5th <br />place in Domestic Crisis. Congratulations to this <br />outstanding group of individuals. <br /> <br />The conference had more than 500 explorers participating in various events and <br />categories. Five of the eight Orono explorers had no prior experience and it was their <br />first conference. The explorers are led by Orono Police Officers Brayden Sherman, Trey <br />Wiebusch, Mike Fournier and Jane Szczepanik. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />career opportunities ∙ life skills ∙ <br /> service learning ∙ character <br />education ∙ leadership <br />experience <br />200
