Dance Night - Meeting Notes for The Neighborhood Watch

The Neighborhood Crime Watch group is asking community members to check on the
elderly and housebound during inclement weather. These people may not be able to
get to a store for basic necessities.

The Neighborhood Crime Watch is planning another Teen Dance in March with more
details to come later.





JANUARY 9, 2010 - CRIME WATCH MEETING NOTES
PRESENT AT MEETING: Virginia Rhonemus, Don Hastings, Frank Rosselott, Randy Sannes,
Jean Radcliffe, Denise Vilvens
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Jean Radcliffe reported that the Neighborhood Crime Watch currently has $384.56 in
the account.

The next Neighborhood Crime Watch meeting is scheduled for February 6th, 10:00 A.M.
at the Municipal Building.

The group discussed having another Teen Dance for the kids in the community. Denise
is going to contact the middle school to see if we could use their facilities for
the dance. We are hoping to have the dance either March 5th or March 12th. Frank
Rosselott is going to speak to Terry McGinnis to see if Terry's would be willing to
donate towards a dj for the dance.

It was also reported that the food pantry truck has been scheduled for three more
dates with the next visit being in March. Denise is going to contact her sister,
Michelle Truman, who is the Student Council Advisor at the high school to see if
high school students could receive community service hours and assist at the food
pantry. Future food pantry events will occur on Thursdays at the Fire Station. It
was also suggested that high school students could be teamed up with the community
in service projects. This is going to also be pursued further.

Concern was raised about the elderly citizens in our community in the inclement
weather. The group felt community awareness needs to be raised to check on the
elderly and housebound in Lynchburg. A message will be placed on the sign in town
and in the Village Voice, for everyone to do their share in making sure our elderly
have what they need during this bad weather.

No crime or suspicious activity in the community was reported. It seems the cold
weather has played a role in keeping even the criminals indoors.

Meeting was adjourned.
