Recruit Constable Travis Peter swears-in as STPS officer

Recruit Constable Travis Peters from the St’at’imc community of N’Quatqua was sworn-in with the STPS on December 18, 2023.  He began his Block 1 training at the Police Academy at the Justice Institute of BC in Vancouver BC in January of 2024.  His expected graduation date is November 8, 2024.  Travis grew up in Lillooet and visited N’Quatqua regularly in his youth.  The community had supported him throughout his earlier years.  He was not expecting to get back into the community.   But after a couple of weeks out of the Justice Institute he could see that getting back into the community was equivalent to helping out the community.  Being a police officer in N’Quatqua is like paying back to N’Quatqua all of the support he had received.  Travis’ father is Travis Peters Sr from N’Quatqua.  His mother is Caroline Peters originally from Shal’alh, but has since transferred to N’Quatqua.  Travis had played minor hockey in Lillooet. Now for sports he runs, plays hockey and golfs.  He plans on continuing to help out the communities in his new role as a police officer.
