"Over time, life takes on a patina, the accumulation of the thin layers of coats of experiences, events, lessons, losses and loves that make up life. Those accumulated experiences make up our collective memory; they are the recollections that we keep and look back on and say, 'This is what I have seen, this is what I have done, and this is who I am.' By far, the most important of those experiences are the people who have come in and out of our lives, and as I advance through my own life, I see that in the end, they are the only experience that really matters. A life filled with recollections of dear friends, of loving spouses, of generous parents, and of laughing children is the only real life there is."

Looking to try something new in 2024? Join us for our annual Citizen’s Academy!
The Citizen's Academy provides insight into modern-day policing through hands-on training conducted by Eagan Police Officers.
The training includes department history, a tour of the PD, a K-9 demo, a review of typical police calls, DUI demo, narcotics presentation, a homicide investigation, laws of arrest, search and seizure, use of force simulations, a 4-hour ride along, an optional visit to our shooting range, and more.
The Academy is held on Wednesday evenings from 6:00 — 9:00 p.m. at the Eagan PD. Due to space limitations, the Academy is limited to the first 25 participants that apply and pass a background check.
