BE ALERT and AWARE
                                                                           By Caryn Arnold

If you are reading this, then you are already aware that crime is on the increase and we need people like you to be involved in helping to keep our neighbors and neighborhoods safe. But, that doesn't necessarily translate into being ALERT.
The word “AWARE” means “to be informed, to be familiar with and mindful of.” The word “ALERT” means “to be vigilant, watchful, on the lookout, on one's guard, on one's toes,” and this one I really like: “bright eyed and bushy tailed.” And, this is what my information is all about – being ALERT.


Use your SENSES to protect you, to make you aware of someone's presence. Be comfortable and relaxed but never off your guard. Don't walk outside your apartment or home and be fiddling with your keys, digging around in your handbag or otherwise occupied in a manner that prevents you from being very aware of your surroundings.

Use your EYES to glance back and forth, a panoramic view from right to left, left to right. Never turn your back on anyone. Glance over your shoulder to watch your back.
Did you know your own shadow can be your best friend? If you can see your shadow on the sidewalk in front of you, you can also see the shadow of someone coming up behind you. The same goes for seeing your own shadow on the wall of a building or some other structure. Watch your shadow; watch your back!
