Build Community and Get Ready for WINTER!


I know for some it is hard to think that soon there will be snow falling but here’s an idea to help make worthwhile use of the winter months!

Are you a resident who would like to help form a community group to volunteer to shovel sidewalks at vacant homes in your neighborhood?  Not only would this help to build a strong neighborhood by getting to know your neighbors, it would also help to prevent potential crimes in the neighborhood by making it appear as if the vacant properties are not sitting empty waiting to be vandalized. Also, a well kept property may just attract new neighbors to fill those vacant properties. Remember, being a good neighbor helps everyone and promotes, GOOD NEIGHBORS!

This is just a picture to remind you of what is coming...
