How may I schedule a police department tour?
The police department is located in the heart of Downtown Elgin. Groups of citizens, students, scouts of all sorts and other organizations can request a tour of the facility. Tour groups learn about the responsibilities of the station, its personnel and the assigned equipment through this walk-through exhibition. The tour can include observations of the Emergency Communications Division, the Holding Facility, and an interactive viewing of a police squad car. Tours are limited to no more than 40 people and the tour information can be tailored to your group's needs and/or ages. Contact Community Relations at 847-289-2530 to schedule your tour.Schedule a Tour
