The 10th Annual Public Safety Expo was held on Saturday - August 22, 2009  at the Hermantown Public Safety Facility, 5111 Maple Grove Road, Hermantown, MN.  The event ran from 10:00 a.m to 4:00 p.m. and there were demonstrations scheduled every half hour.  Map it

This free family event featured over 45 Law Enforcement, Search and Rescue, Fire, Medical Personnel and other agencies who provided demonstrations and public safety information throughout the day.  This was a great opportunity for the public to meet and talk to public safety personnel, see many different types of equipment, and watch interesting demonstrations.   In addition, there were many interactive opportunities throughout the day such as the Firearms Training Simulator (FATS), Laser Shoot, 911 Call Training for Kids, etc.  In addition, families could sit for a "Jail" Photo.

Demonstrations included such things as taser, motor vehicle extrication, rappelling from a building, canine searches, and much more.  In addition, children could sit in squad cars and prisoner transport vehicles, see police and rescue dogs in action, watch the mounted posse horses, and talk to numerous emergency service personnel.

New things to see this year included the State Patrol's vintage Harley Davidson motorcycle, LifeLink and LifeFlight medical helicopters, Child Digital ID kits, and more.
