Crime Report 2/22/13-Important Dates-Street Group Update



Good Morning All!

How's the beautiful weather treating you this week? While our mornings are brisk, the sunshine is wonderous in the afternoons- I think we are even going to get near 70 degrees Fahrenheit today! Remember you can look at more information for our area at crimereports.com and even use their mobile phone app for free for your iPhone or Android device. Not all types of crimes are listed on this website and some cases take more time than others to be released, but it's an excellent resource none the less.

Important Dates and Volunteer Time

* Remember that March 9th, starting at 8:30 a.m. is our Adopt-A-Park Day with the Carmichael Recreation and Park District. It's really important to show the Park District that we care about keeping our park safe and clean and appreciate the work they do every day to make it one of the jewels of our neighborhood. Please grab a hat and some work gloves and meet us out at the park two Saturdays from now to pitch in. Last time, we had around 10 volunteers and we'd love to show the CRPD what this neighborhood can do when we get the word out! If you'd like to donate water or snacks or lend us a folding table for a headquarters for that day, just let myself or Olivia know. I will definitely have my large water thermos out on our lawn for volunteer use, and make sure I've got some coffee made for those who might need a little kick start for the morning!

UPDATE: Thank you so much Tiffany for offering the use of a folding table-so appreciated! Anyone else who would like to bring something or help out, please just let us know :)

* The other important date to remember for March is when the Sacramento Sheriff's Department invites the community to come get updates from their POP officers and get some face to face time to discuss neighborhood concerns. You can attend this meeting at 6:00 p.m. March 19th (3rd Tuesday of every other month) at the Del Campo High Library.

Street Group Updates!

Last, but not least, I just wanted to point out to members on Jan Drive's West Loop near Jan Park, that our page has been updated recently with the date and time of our next meeting. We will also be adding an agenda to our Jan Drive/Jan Park Watch street group page on the side bar of the blog sometime early next week.

Because Park Watch is designed through the National Crime Council to be taken on by primarily those neighbors in the immediate adjacent vicinity of a neighborhood park, but we don't have a lot of current active Street Watch groups on the Salmaan side of the park at this time, we would happily welcome anyone near the park, or neighbors that use the park who have safety requests, concerns, or questions to please attend this meeting as well. The more the merrier!

We also have happily had a request to add Rampart/Onyx, an excellent active street group, to our list of pages on the side and will look forward to hearing updates about their activities in the future. If you are a coordinator of a street group, we would love to add your group to our list and would be happy to update or share any information you would like us to with the local community. This is exactly what this blog is all about!

Wishing you all a wonderful weekend!
