Citizens On Patrol

Have you noticed this sign by our mailboxes? The Citizens on Patrol Program (COPP) involves keeping a neighbourly watch over their communities in an effort to reduce crime. In Lac Le Jeune, Coleen Krawchuk and Carolyn Chandler have been patrolling the area over the past year to watch for any unusual activity. The role of Citizens on Patrol is to simply observe and report back to the police anything that might require follow-up.

This program is always looking for volunteers. It's a great way to give back to the community, and at the same time hang out with chums for a few hours each month :)
