The Rosedale Block Watchers are beginning to take shape. Richard Akers of the 6100 block of Pershing has agreed to be the coordinator of this important project. Crime is an issue with which everyone must live, regardless of their address, and the Block Watcher effort is one way in which citizens can work together to make their neighborhood stronger. Should you have any questions or care to volunteer, please call Rich at 726-1032 or leave your name at the Council office (862-5122).
The primary thrust of the Block Watcher Program is to organize better the individual blocks.
We are beginning by arranging security surveys by the St. Louis Police Department. Officer Terry Willis will also provide an individual home survey (scheduled through your individual Block Captain).
It is hoped that each block will have a meeting to exchange names and phone numbers. Block Captains are listed below:
6000 Pershing Ilene McGinn
6000 Waterman Tom Moore
6000 McPherson volunteer needed
6000 Kingsbury Karen Kelsey
6000 Westminster Gail Farwell
6000 Washington volunteer needed.
6100 Pershing Richard Akers
6100 Waterman volunteer needed
6100 Kingsbury Jane Geer
6100 Westminster Sandy Price
6100 Washington volunteer needed
6100 McPherson John Pitts
