Question: What is that gray trailer used for at 20001 Euclid Avenue with the Euclid Police Mini Station sign?
Answer from Audrey Cobb, Euclid Police Department Community Outreach Specialist:What goes on at the Euclid Police Mini Station may be surprising. For the last several years some of the activities have included: GED classes, tutoring programs for elementary students, a six week summer camp for children, photography and babysitter classes, teen job training, and video classes. In the spring an art exhibition for the Euclid Central Middle Schools art class students was displayed on the walls of the mini station, and in the fall the Euclid Police held the National Night Out event here. The mini station property has a playground, basketball court, and picnic tables under the trees for all Euclid residents to enjoy.
Currently, the Euclid Public Library has installed a mini-library and keeps it supplied with reading materials for children and adults, along with fun programming for all ages. Books can be checked out for up to three weeks. Other current activities include: the juvenile diversion program utilizing the mini station for skill building sessions, a back to school get-together, Euclid Ward meetings, and community group functions held in the conference room. Any community group or individual is welcome to utilize the mini station to hold a meeting, present a special event, or offer programming which enriches the community or enhances personal development. For Euclid Police Mini Station reservation information, contact Audrey Cobb at 481-5486.
