JULY 13th UPDATE

Hello Garden Tracters! ...or should I spell that "Tractors"?

National Night Out is Tuesday August 4th. I am pleased to say we now have 8 unofficial or semi-official crime watch groups in our neighborhood. Could there be more that I don't know about yet? The Redding Police may have terminated their Crime Prevention Officer position and reassigned our friend, Mike Leonard, but he was as friendly and helpful as ever when I finally reached him.

There will be police units visiting crime watch groups on National Night Out, so please welcome them if they are in the neighborhood. We hope you can all stop by your nearest block party and say hello, even if you live on a block that does not have a crime watch group started yet. Gold, Lincoln, and Canal, possibly even Verda St may have block parties that evening. We are excited to see our neighbors out and about. Feel free to visit the Lincoln St group after 7 pm that Tuesday at 795 Lincoln.

The ice cream night was enjoyable. Approximately 15 neighbors joined us, more if we count the babies. I should have documented the event with a photo so I could post it here. I'm leaving room for improvement, as always!

Hope you're enjoying the summer!

Sincerely,
Monique Gaido
