Last week at a Captain’s Meeting, members of the Pleasant Ridge & Ramsgate Community Watch looked at the calendar for 2009 and set dates for meetings and events. The organizations by-laws require the group to hold quarterly meetings, but members also participate in numerous other ways like the annual neighborhood clean-up event, called Street Sweep, and National Night Out ™ — a nationwide crime prevention event. Members should save the following dates:
- Annual Meeting (Q1) – Tuesday, March 3, 2009
- 5th Annual Street Sweep & Cookout – Saturday April 25, 2009
- Quarterly Meeting (Q2) – Monday, May 18, 2009
- Annual Yard Sale – Saturday, June 13, 2009
- National Night Out / Quarterly Meeting (Q3) – Tuesday, August 4, 2009
- September 2009 – Neighborhoods Month, Neighborhood Exchange (TBA)
- Halloween Haunted Houses – Saturday, October 31, 2009
- Cookie Exchange / Quarterly Meeting (Q4) – Tuesday, November 10, 2009
- Holiday Lights – Sunday, December 13, 2009
These events will also be posted on Google Calendar under the public “Pleasant Ridge & Ramsgate Community Watch” calendar.

About: Jason: I'm a neighborhood advocate. I started off by getting involved in the Pleasant Ridge & Ramsgate Community Watch program and helped grow that organization. I saw an opportunity to unite other neighborhoods in our area with the Lineberry Alliance. I became chair of Raleigh's South West Citizen Advisory Council (SWCAC) in April 2010 along with vice chair Anthony McLeod and second vice chair Mary Belle Pate. I work with other neighborhood leaders in District D alongside City Councilor Thomas Crowder, on the District D Neighborhood Alliance (DDNA). I've completed Raleigh Neighborhood College (Spring 2005) and Leadership North Carolina (May 2007). In 2009, I lead a group of neighborhood volunteers to review Raleigh's 2030 Comprehensive Plan. I have a genuine interest in strong communities, fostering diversity, understanding the issues, and being transparent in my work. You can follow me on Twitter: @jhibbets |
