The Corvallis Police Department maintains a police cadet unit comprised of citizen volunteers to enhance the police-community partnership and provide auxiliary resources in support of policing activities. The program is designed to provide an introduction to law enforcement to those interested in pursuing a career in this rewarding profession. Cadets who desire to continue in the law enforcement profession are encouraged to apply with the Department once they turn 21.

Eric Scott McKinley Skate Park

Location: 

In central Corvallis, located at 1st Street and "B" Avenue, under the highway bypass 

Size:

Less than one acre 

Willamette Boat Landing

Location: On the southeast part of town, at the end of Fischer Lane, off of Crystal Lake Drive

The Willamette Boat Landing is a concrete ramp that leads down into the Willamette River allowing sports enthusiasts to easily load and unload their motor boats. (Most aqua-enthuiasts that launch non-motorized water craft, such as kayaks and canoes, use North Riverfront Park instead, where the current is a bit slower.)
