Neighborhood News Block Watch
Block Party BBQ
|
The
Hillyard neighborhood my wife and I moved 'into' six years ago
seemed like many others around town. It didn't take long to make
friends with several of the neighbors. We also had a few problems
develop over time that our local COPS shop helped us solve. They
also recommended that we form a Neighborhood Block Watch network,
which in the past several years has helped develop even more
friendships in our little neighborhood. Interesting enough one of
the newest homeowners suggested having a barbecue. I thought the
idea sounded fun and as the Block Watch representative, I contacted
the neighbors. Four days later we had an awesome barbecue attended
by over 20 people. Some of these people are pictured. They include
longtime residents like Zella Graham, Charlie and Darlene Laird and
Earl and Joyce Schmidt. Since it went so well, we are considering a
winter gathering. Even though the nice weather is escaping us, I
urge you to get your neighbors together for some social activity and
consider forming your own Neighborhood Block Watch.
For
