Hello Neighbors, 

I hope you have all recovered from the Police Chase the other evening. I want to credit you all with keeping your sidearms at your side unlike the vigilante in another neighborhood. 

Just want to remind you that the Jamboree is coming up this weekend. They still have some shifts to fill if you are interested in volunteering go to the-jamboree.com 

Enjoy the coming weeks events and there are a few in the future to consider.
