If you've ever thought about becoming a police officer or fire fighter, you'll have a chance this weekend to get a lot of first-hand information.  

The Shreveport Police and Fire Departments will be holding an Open House Career Day from ten until two this Saturday at the Fire and Police Training Academy on Greenwood Road.

Personnel from both departments will be on hand to talk with you about what they do every day.  Members of some of the specialized units within each department will be there, too, along with recruiters who can tell you what all's involved in becoming a police officer or fire fighter.  In addition, there will be displays of a lot of the equipment and apparatus used by both departments.  Plus, you'll be able to see the inner workings of both training academies.
