Wanna' Go to Jail?

You'll have that opportunity if you sign up for Northampton County's first Spring Academy.

It's a one-evening session that will focus on the Department of Corrections. The first 50 county citizens who register will be among the select few to hear about what goes on behind bars. It will focus on the programs and services that Corrections administers.

This session will take place on Wednesday, May 7, between 6 and 8:30 pm. You'll meet at the jail. If you'd like to register, call Camille Bartlett, Public Safety Administrator, at 610-923-4327. You can also email her at cbartlett@northamptoncounty.org.

The goal of the Citizens’ Academy is to foster a better relationship between County Government and its constituents while providing the foundation for greater citizen participation on the county’s Boards, Commissions and Authorities.

    Disagree Matt, quite a waste of money in the name of PR.

You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
