Fox Hollow Neighborhood Watch

05/18/09

Our Fox Hollow Neighborhood Watch will have it's first year anniversary next month. Thanks to everyone that have supported the Neighborhood Watch and have signed up as members.
During the past year, our Neighborhood Watches members have been instrumental in reducing crime in many instances in our community. In one instance where some drug activity was involved, the area was reported to Allen police for an extra patrol deterring these people from using the area in Fox Hollow. In another instance, vandalism was reported and stopped in a vacant house by another Neighborhood Watch member. Again in another major incident, a Watch member brought the pursuit by Allen Police of suspects related to drug involvement to a quick conclusion by reporting unknown men beside her home late at night.
We have a great deal of work to do in including all our community in the Fox Hollow Neighborhood Watch. Success of a neighborhood watch is based on the nature of people to care about the well being of people that they have met. Once we know a neighbor, a family, or a child, research has shown that people simply care more to take an interest in what is happening with our acquaintances.
The things that each of us must do are to sign up to be a member of the Neighborhood Watch including an email address to give you crime alerts and meeting updates. (Our members during the past year can verify to you that there has been no release of email addresses to anyone for any other purpose.)
Second, Watch members must take the time occasionally to attend a Neighborhood Watch meeting so they can indeed meet some of their neighbors. Our meetings are casual, relaxed and children friendly. I think you'll find it surprising as to how much we have in common with others.
Lastly, we now are excited to introduce you to our new Fox Hollow Neighborhood Watch Website. Our website address is: http://www.neighborhoodlink.com/allen/fh/main.html
At our website you will be able to link to a great deal of community information along with neighborhood discussion and other functions. Please, also, sign up for this site as in the future your Alerts, Meeting Dates, and Minutes will be sent to you through this site. We hope you enjoy it.
If you have not signed up for the Fox Hollow Neighborhood Watch, please do so today and join us in supporting our community.
