United Way Contributor Choice #2621

December 8th from 7-9pm
Reynolds Street (between Hastings and Gettysburg)

We’ll have horse and carriage rides, live music, warm drinks, some special guests, and hopefully brisk — but not frigid — weather. This event, like all events the South Point Breeze Organization offers, is free and open to all residents. Donations are always accepted. Download the flyer.

Stay alert to your surroundings at all times.

Never walk alone after dark, even in areas with which you are familiar.

Don’t carry cash or credit cards with you if at all possible.

If confronted by an armed assailant, don’t resist, do whatever they tells you. Money or property can be replaced, you can’t be!

Report all crime, no matter how small. You must call 911, there is no other number! From the law enforcement perspective, if it wasn’t reported, it didn’t happen.

At night, lighting is very important. Leave your porch light on all night. During the day, and night for that matter, secure your valuables. Don’t leave things out that you want to keep. Porch furniture is difficult to secure, but be creative.

Finally, watch out for each other and watch for suspicious behavior. People looking into cars and trying car doors, or walking between houses or going door to door with some sad story!
