In 2012, the Fayetteville Police Department, in partnership with the Fayetteville High School revitalized the Fayetteville Police Explorers.  The Fayetteville Police Explorers is sanctioned under Learning for Life, affiliated with the Boy Scouts of America.  It is open to all students, male and female, in Fayetteville and Lincoln County, Tennessee.  Students must be at least fourteen years to nineteen years of age and have an interest in law enforcement or the justice system.  Membership is open year-round and prospective members may contact Mr. Young at 931-433-3158. In addition to learning law enforcement activities, students participate in community service projects, as well as "high adventure" activities similar to the scouting experience.
