There is a Wildwood police sub-station at Brownwood.
the substation at Brownwood is rarely manned in the evenings -- I feel a visible preference (on foot) at night is needed to help out the CW. -- usually is it one guy on - with a crowd of 200 or more - several of which have made one too many trips to the drinking hole -

What has the past response time been, when needed?

Well said Steve . As usual a voice of intelligent well thought out and expressed reason .
For too many who complain such rational thoughts take all the " air " out of their emotion based arguments . Hence they rarely acknowledge or respond to your Posts .
I for one am a fan and encourage you to continue your efforts .

for the most part, Community Watch is a joke.
My opinion based on experiences.

I really appreciate the Community Watch! Last week we had left our garage door open and the light on. We got a phone call at 1:45am. It was the CW. Just checking on us. We didn't get to the phone in time, but they left a message to call back at 8am in the morning so they would know we were ok. I didn't get a chance to call back! They called us at 8am on the dot.

We feel very appreciative to the Community Watch.
