Ride Along Program

Residents of Sidney and candidates looking at employment as a Sidney Police Officer are encouraged to ride along with the department. The Sidney Police Department has an open ride along program. This is a unique way to meet the officers, see the culture at our department, and see the kinds of calls that officers deal with on a day to day basis. You can find the Ride Along Application here and the waiver Ride Along Waiver of Liability here. 

These applications can be emailed to Captain Shoemaker at bshoemaker@sidneyoh.com or can be dropped off at the Sidney Police Department at either the Records window or Dispatch window.
