A Christmas party with a meal, entertainment, free family portraits, gifts for kids and a hay ride.  Saturday, December 10th from 11:00 AM to 3:00 PM.

If you are interested in helping, in anyway, you can do something as simple as just drop needed food off beforehand, or something more involved like being a server, etc.    

For all the help that's needed, and to sign-up to provide it, please go to this link:  http://www.signupgenius.com/go/4090e4babaa2da57-christmas

We can use help distributing flyers to the community about the above, this Saturday, December 3, from 10:30am till Noon. We gather at New Life in Christ at 1380 Ammons St., and go from there.  It's a great way to door knock, and get to the know the neighbors as we personally invite them.

Attention Lakewood businesses: It’s that time of year again as we are gear up for National Night Out on Tuesday, August 2. National Night Out (NNO) is an annual community event designed to build a healthier, safer city; to generate support for anti-crime programs; and to strengthen the police/community relationship. NNO consists of small neighborhood block parties in neighborhoods or at businesses where community members have an opportunity to get to know one another, and visits by police agents give the police an opportunity to connect with community members, answer questions or address concerns.  Events can consist of barbecues, potlucks, or even ice cream socials. If you hosted a party last year, we would like to thank you for your participation. If you have not yet participated, this is the year to get involved. Please visit Lakewood.org/NNO to register. Due to the high demand, the Police Department has expanded the number of events it can support this year from 40 to 50, so don’t miss out.  Register your event today!
