A
group of young teens from the San Bernardino City Unified School District’s Restorative Youth Court program had the opportunity to watch a motocross
race between various Southern California Fire and Police agencies Tuesday morning at Glen Helen Raceway with officers from the San Bernardino Police Department Police Activities League (PAL). In its second year, the partner-
ship between PAL and Youth Court provides the opportunity for at-risk youth to develop trust with local police in casual and fun settings throughout the year. Roughly a dozen police officers volunteer on major outings that have included a camping trip in the local mountains and wake-
boarding at an area lake. Youth, selected by district personnel identified at risk for wayward behavior, are taken out of their comfort zones and exposed to new experiences through field Motocross, cont. on next pg.
