40 children from the Belmopan area got a great gift from the Capital Cops and the Coast Guard: they learned how to swim!
Belmopan police set up the program to impart an important life skill to the children - and also to make them safer in a country with so many water resources. John Carr from Banana Bank Lodge donated the use of his pool and today - after a week of training by the Coast Guard, they all graduate.
A statement from Belmopan police says it's all about creating safer communities and narrowing the gap between the community and the police.
