The 2012 Coon Rapids Citizens Academy
One of the "coolest" civics classes around!
Have you ever wanted to learn more about the city’s police and fire departments, or take a tour of the city’s cable television studio? Are you interested in learning more about city operations? If so, you’ll want to be part of the Coon Rapids Citizens Academy. This free program is designed to give residents an up-close, behind the scenes look at city operations.
