East Sacramento Neighbors Seek Solutions to Neighborhood Crime

images-1After Judy McClaver was attacked in McKinley Park a slew of neighbors contacted East Sacramento Preservation asking how to help. I’m happy to report that East Sacramento neighbor Leanne Mack is organizing an East Sac meeting with Nextdoor.com and the Sacramento Police Department to do a large-group training on how to start a Neighborhood Watch program in connection with city police. You can contact ESP and we’ll pass the information on to Leanne, or you can go on to Nextdoor and join her group East Sac Neighborhood Watch. The meeting is tentatively set for Aug 27 or 28th. Here’s Leanne’s email if you want to contact her directly.Eastsacpetpals@comcast.net

While this is not a solution to illegal camping or crime issues in the parks, it is a start. Starting a Watch Group is not hard and it’s a great way to meet your neighbors. Also, join Nextdoor.com com. Your neighbors through out East Sac are waiting to talk with you!

Fab 40s 5k Run/Walk

In 2008 we launched a great community event, and we strive to make it even better every year. Realizing there is a tremendous need in the local community to help caregivers and their families, the Fab 40’s committee donates all proceeds from this event to theAlzheimer’s Association www.alz.org.

We want to increase the understanding of Alzheimer’s disease and its devastating affect on families.  We feel the need to provide an opportunity for affected families to meet and interact with one another.

This year’s Fab 40′s 5k Run/Walk  will be held on Saturday, July 26, 2014.  The name of the race comes from the neighborhood in which the race is held; the East Sacramento community has embraced this event and looks forward to seeing and cheering on all event participants.

“Alzheimer’s Memorial Wall”

The “Alzheimer’s Memorial Wall” is the first of its kind in the nation.  Modeled after the Vietnam Wall, people can inscribe the name of a loved one who has died from Alzheimer’s disease or is currently dealing with this disease.  It is a way to memorialize or honor a loved one or friend.  Located at East Lawn Memorial Park, individuals are invited to visit the wall in a beautiful, peaceful setting and share a comment on your visit.
