NEW CONCORD, Ohio — On June 20, the Ohio State Highway Patrol will host regional testing for prospective applicants at Henry D. Bullock Health & Wellness Complex at Muskingum University, located at 260 Stadium Drive in New Concord.

Those interested in employment with the patrol can come to the Henry D. Bullock Health & Wellness Complex at Muskingum University at 9 a.m., where they will have the ability to talk with troopers about a career of service in our communities and on Ohio roadways. Those who meet the basic requirements to be a trooper — age 20 to 39, U.S. citizen, high school diploma or GED, and a valid driver license — will have the opportunity to complete an application and a written test during the event.
