Pennsylvania Angler & Boater - July/August 2020 - 5

Even before the current class has graduated, we are
already recruiting for the next class of WCOs. This is
part of a long-term commitment to fill vacant districts
as quickly as possible to provide the officers themselves
and those they are charged with serving the support and
assistance that they deserve.
For the first time, we are seeking applicants who
already possess Act 120 certification. This approach
is intended to attract applicants who may be
interested in conservation law enforcement but who,
understandably, may be reluctant to repeat the Act 120
training if they already have it under their belt. We
will be accepting applications until July 18. For more
information on the application process, please visit
www.fishandboat.com.

As part of the recruitment materials, we produced a video
highlighting the work that an applicant could anticipate if
they took on the challenge of becoming a WCO. The soonto-be-officers from the 22nd class are featured prominently
in the video. Even if you are not interested in applying,
please consider watching the video in which we ask, and the
cadets help answer, "What does it take?" to be a WCO. You
will come away impressed and inspired.
Without a doubt, the current class had to have even more
of what it takes to be a WCO as they completed their training
under unprecedented circumstances.
Please join me in welcoming the individuals listed below
who have been assigned to the corresponding districts. And
if you think you or someone you know has what it takes to
join them, please get your application in by July 18.
