Sheriff Koutoujian greeted Waltham cadets, parents on first day of YPSA
Middlesex Sheriff Peter J. Koutoujian was in Waltham Monday morning to greet parents and wish youngsters well as they boarded a bus headed for the first day of the week-long Youth Public Safety Academy (YPSA) run by the Sheriff’s Office. This is the 14th year of the free Academy for children ages 9-11. The program is held at the Sheriff’s training facility in Billerica and culminates with a graduation ceremony Friday.
Children from Cambridge, Newton and Watertown are also attending the Academy this week. More than 1600 children from Middlesex County communities will participate in the Academy over an eight-week period this summer.
