Dear Neighborhood Watch Members,

I want to take this opportunity to thank all of you for your support and hard work over the past year. What each and all of you do is so vital to the health and safety of your neighborhood and the City of Boston. I’ve enjoyed meeting many of you and learning more about the tremendous impact that Neighborhood Watch Groups have in their community. Now more than ever, as the country goes through a very tumultuous time, and everyone is forced to do more with less; your participation is a key element to the strength of this city. Remember to reach out to your neighbors and call us with any questions or concerns. Especially remember to call 9-1-1 to report anything at all suspicious. Again, our thanks go out to you and, let’s not lose the momentum as we look towards next year. May all of you have a safe and happy holiday season. I look forward to seeing and hearing from all of you in 2009.

With Best Wishes,

Carolyn MacNeil

Director, Neighborhood Watch Unit
