It was a fun summer at the Jr Cadet Academy. The Billerica Recreation and the Billerica Police Department partner to offer this affordable camp for 8-12 year old’s! For those interested in attending next summer we have included a description below the gallery.

In this program, participants learn about bullying, gain an understanding of social media safety, test their crime scene investigation skills, and be put through the radKIDS® curriculum.

What is radKIDS®?

Since 2001 radKIDS®, has become the National Leader in Children’s Safety Education. Empowering children and parents with a revolutionary skill-based curriculum, that strengthens children personal boundaries and parental confidence. Replacing fear with knowledge, skill, and power, by enhancing a child’s critical thinking abilities and physical resistance skills, our programs provide the opportunity for children to recognize, avoid, resist, and if necessary escape violence or harm while remaining joyful and safer in our world today.

In addition to the educational portion of the program, including multiple guest speakers, we have fun with a variety of different sports and games to stay busy and burn off that energy.
