During a recent government meeting in Pleasant Grove, significant discussions highlighted the achievements of the local cadet program, which has made a notable impact on the community. Over the past year, cadets have dedicated hundreds of hours to community service, including a successful food drive that collected over 2,000 pounds of food and essential baby supplies during the holiday season.

The program, which has been running for three years, emphasizes integrity and community representation among its participants. The cadets are recognized not only for their academic performance but also for their social engagement and involvement in various activities. The program's growth is evident, with four cadets graduating high school and pursuing careers in law enforcement, with two currently in the application and interview process.

A particularly moving moment during the meeting was the recognition of cadet Jordan Hunter, who was awarded a life-saving plaque for her quick thinking during a family camping trip. When her younger sister, Harper, choked on a bottle cap, Jordan utilized her emergency medical training to successfully dislodge the object, saving Harper's life. This incident underscored the program's unexpected yet profound impact on the lives of its participants and the community.

The meeting concluded with expressions of gratitude towards the city, police administration, and the leadership of the cadet program, reinforcing the commitment to its continued success and growth.
