Get Involved with the Ann Arbor Police Department

2025 Blaze & Blue

Back for its fourth year, the Ann Arbor Fire and Police departments will host Blaze & Blue Career Camp, 8 a.m.–3 p.m. Monday-Friday, July 7-10. Registration is now open at https://aapd.a2gov.org/2025BlazeandBlue.

The free, four-day program provides local young women ages 15–18 years the opportunity to experience the most challenging and exciting tasks in firefighting, first response and law enforcement. The week will focus on:

• July 7–8 — Fire department

• July 9–10 — Police department

Space is limited, and this camp has filled quickly in previous years. Priority will be given to city of Ann Arbor residents, followed by residents of other Washtenaw County communities. Questions? Contact Officer Kasey Whitford at kwhitford@a2gov.org or Fire Department Office Manager Chantel Jackson at cjackson@a2gov.org.
