Ladies Night – Wednesday, August 17 @ 7 p.m.
With Summer vacation schedules coming to an end and school about to begin, we're going to shake it up a bit and try a change in format.
Ladies Night will be "Wine Down Wednesday" to celebrate our most popular beverage and that on Wednesday we are over the hump of the week and on the down hill slide to the weekend. If you would like to volunteer to be our host on August 17th, or any other month, please contact Donna at donnacoker@yahoo.com
Being a host is easy and we bring the wine! We hope to see you on the 17th - location to be announced closer to the date.

Process for Requesting Home Checks While Away
If you are a Crime Watch Member, our ENP officers will check on your home when you're out of town. When you'd like a home check, please email CrimeWatch@LakewoodHills.org with the dates you're going to be away, your address, and any other brief information you deem relevant (e.g., if they should expect anyone there pet sitting). All information provided will of course stay private between our ENP officers and the Crime Watch Board. You may email us as far in advance as you like. Please provide at least 4 days notice as we update the Crime Watch calendar on Sundays and Wednesdays.
Tips to Prevent Crime
(Based on both feedback from our officers and the Crime Watch Board)
- Protect yourself and your loved ones by keeping your doors locked. This includes doors to your house, garage, gates and cars. Most "break-ins" that happen in our neighborhood are because things are left unlocked.
- Don't leave garage doors open or cars running in the street or driveway, even for a minute.
- Don't announce any new purchases by leaving boxes out on the curb during bulk trash week. Break them down and put them in the bins.
- Report all security issues to 911 (our patrol officer will be notified immediately if during a shift). After calling 911, e-mail CrimeWatch@LakewoodHills.org. We have a direct line to our ENP officers and will let them know of all incidents, but all incidents (urgent and non, as prioritized by 911) must be reported through a 911 call. You may also report crimes online here.
- Check your back alleys. Make sure that your alleys are clean from debris and overhanging or overgrown trees and are well-lit. Don't create easy hiding spots. The patrol officers drive through the back alleys to do their checks, so make sure the path is clear for them.
