“Two Cents” from your current Editor – Ken Atkison – HCNWA 9-10-08
Yes. I believe it’s time that I let my “two-cents” appear in print. I have been associated with this Organization for approximately 5 years now, and I have seen many, many changes occur. Some good, some not so good. Through it all, one thing always has remained steadfast, our main goal of providing crime deterrent methods to our members. With our help, both personally and on web, they would have a way to find answers to help control the growth of criminal activity in their respective neighborhoods.
We have 286 registered Group’s currently, and yes, I would like to see that number grow in ranks. Only time will tell the outcome. We maintain a Web-page at www.hcnwa.org with a great deal of helpful information & links . Based on the number of hits to our web-site, I don’t believe many of our members are taking advantage of it. Perhaps they have grown complacent, and don’t feel the need to go on the web-page since they are not having any issues in their respective areas. If that is their situation, I simply say congratulations.
We have a President – Mr. Nick Bates that has put in a lot of years on this Board, and is always looking at ways to improve our Organization. He, puts together our Semi-Annual & Annual meetings in April and Oct., and I feel does an admirable job of trying to enlighten the membership. Let’s show some united effort this year, and get out to the Dinner/Meeting on the 21st of Oct. at HCC – Brandon Campus at 7:00PM. Bring a friend, a neighbor, a relative, and let’s have a well-attended meeting for the HCNWA Annual meeting. That’s my “two-cents.” Join Us – Come on Out ! ! |
