For the second time this month, you will likely hear a large-scale training exercise occur in Kewaunee County for local law enforcement.
Scheduled to take place on Wednesday, the Kewaunee County Sheriff’s Department, the police departments of Algoma, Kewaunee, and Luxemburg, and other emergency responders will hold their annual training at the Kewaunee County Fairgrounds in Luxemburg. Chief Deputy Jason Veeser says because Kewaunee County does not have the same resources as larger counties do, it is important for them to go through the basics every year.
The training is expected to take place between 11 a.m. and 9 p.m. and include simulated gunfire and possible yelling and screaming. The Kewaunee County Sheriff’s Department is asking people to avoid the training grounds during this time. The agencies worked together on a similar training at Lakehaven Hall in Kewaunee on July 12th and last week at the Algoma Youth Club.
