| Block Watch - Let's Make 2009 a Year of Safety and Community |
Judging from the turn-out at the September 24th Block Watch training - Roselawn residents are concerned about safety and security in our neighborhood. Representatives from every street were not present - but it's not too late to get involved. Does your street have a captain? If not, can you step up and meet the challenge?
What Block Watch Is: Neighbors looking out for neighbors, for their personal safety, and property. We can do this if we take a few minutes to get acquainted with other families on our street and have a willingness to act in the spirit of community. So, when someone knocks on your door, please take a moment to answer - it could be your neighbor reaching out to you.
If you've attended an RCC meeting recently, you know that concerns about rising crime and drug use are top of mind for everyone. Rather than just complain, let's all work together to do something about it!

| Garden District Block Party - June 2008 |
The Garden District had an old-fashioned block party on June 14. It was a picture perfect day, and there was food, music, conversation and the renewal of neighborly ties. Special thanks to Roy Jones for spearheading the event, and coordinating all parts of the party puzzle.
Our Firemen treated us to a water show and the children had a ball playing in the powerful spray. There are many wonderful photos of the day and you can see them by clicking on the link below.

 |
| Beulah Baptist Congregants March in Celebration |
|
| Sunday, June 8, marked the 10 year anniversary of Beulah Baptist at the Section Road location. The congregation marched from the intersection of Reading Road and Section, to the church, with Cincinnati policemen holding back traffic.
Resplendent in royal purple and white, with children leading the way, the celebrants sang songs of praise and thanksgiving as they proceeded to the church, 1834 Section Road.
Following brief remarks by the Pastor, and additional songs of praise, the large group re-entered the church sanctuary to conduct the morning service.
