Lake Alert

Since thousands of people read my blog, o k let's say millions,

A public notice to the people of our area.
I received this e mail;

FYI: I received a call from ......... .......... today that their home and garage were broken into within the last two weeks. Apparently they took a DVD player and change that was in the cottage. If you're up at the lake, please be aware of any unusual activity and report all to the Oconto County Sheriff's Department.

This seems to be a growing problem on our lake. We all need to start being more vigalant and catch who ever has been pulling this CRAP. It costs everyone time, money and heartache.

I wonder if people do the little things to stop crime. How many people have dusk to dawn lights on there property? How many install sensor lights on their property? It may cost some extra money to install but it might help. If it stops one break in , that's one less people have to deal with.

We used to have a calling procedure on the lake. If there was a break in, residents would go down the line to make sure everyone knew what happened. Each full time resident would contact their neighbor and that neighbor would contact the next. All the way around the lake. Seems that has gone by the wayside. It would be nice if someone would take charge and get it back in service! Maybe the lake association could take charge. Who knows?

I don't have all the answers but we always have to be vigilant to crime.

Things like this make me think about Charles Bronson as the "Vigilante"

We just need to get this STOPPED!
