Tfin Oshawa 725"6501 Since coming to Bowmanville late last year, Inspector Adams has initiated a new Adopt-a-School program program he helped create while working working with the Regional Police in Whitby. The Adopt-a-School program is flexible, he said. Officers are simply assigned to visit a certain school regularly in order to get to know the teachers, staff and especially the kids. It provides a positive role model model for the children and makes the officers officers more approachable in case the kids have problems. Otherwise, uniformed uniformed police might seem intimidating intimidating to the kids. Because Clarington is so geographically geographically spread out, with its villages villages and towns scattered across miles 'of farmland, "walking the. beat" is harder thantif would be in a major metropolis. But, Adams would like officers to get out of their cruisers more often and take the time to get to know merchants and residents as beat cops once did in the past. A rotating "park and walk" program program using bicycles -- which Adams Adams hopes to have up and running this April -- will keep the uniformed uniformed officers more visible and more accessible all around Claring- ton. A rotating "park and walk" program uses bicycles. Bicycles are a great way for modem modem cops to get around and they are an effective policing tool, Adams insists. insists. Kids relate to the riders and, besides that, the bikes help keep cops fit. Officers on bikes in Oshawa have been known to catch impaired drivers in heavy traffic. Durham Regional Police are in the process of deciding what kind of "all-weather-suits," helmets and other other equipment will likely be needed to set up the biking program. Asked to comment on youth crime, Adams said that the intent of the Young Offenders Act was honorable, honorable, but, he added that it was primarily primarily designed to protect the first- time offender. Even the Young Offenders Act doesn't guarantee that every young offender will find their way to a law-abiding future. "There are some young people who arc criminals when they are 10 and they will be criminals when they arc 50." Inspector Adams is a native of Oshawa, but said Bowmanville was not foreign territory. He worked at the local Goodyear plant before he became a police officer. He joined the Oshawa Police Department Department in 1973 and started as a "beat cop." A disgruntled motorist lodged a fonnal complaint against Adams his first day on the job because because he took so long reading the manual in his cruiser to find out how to write a traffic ticket Inspector Adams has worked in surveillance, as a homicide detective and, more recently, as a patrol sergeant. sergeant. He was thanked on behalf of the entire club by Roturian Paul Morris. President Joe Sweet extended his personal thanks as well and offered tills thought for the day: "Crime wouldn't pay if it was run by the government" Irish Eyes at W.l.
