 We're In It Together
In the wake of Hurricane Beryl’s recent impact on our community, we have witnessed firsthand both the destructive power of nature and the resilience of our community. As we continue the process of recovery, it’s crucial to highlight the invaluable role that Neighborhood Watch can play in this endeavor. Neighborhood Watch acts as a vital link, connecting neighbors, sharing resources and offering support. Whether it’s checking on elderly residents, coordinating debris cleanup or organizing supplies, these volunteers exemplify the power of collective action.
Neighborhood Watch Coordinators: Please reach out to your Watch Members to check on their well-being and see if they need assistance during this challenging time. Whether they need help with debris removal, securing their property or accessing essential supplies. If your neighbors do require assistance, please arrange a clean-up effort with your Watch Members. Together, we can support one another and ensure that every member of our community feels supported and cared for during this recovery process.

Throughout July and August, Neighborhood Services is bringing organization to your doorstep every Thursday. Choose a convenient hour between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. for our team to assist you. We'll provide paint kits for your house number on the curb, crime prevention information, essential Neighborhood Services information and fun surprises for the kids.

Celebrate Summer With The Super Summer Number Party
Every Tuesday from 10 to 11 a.m. in July and August, we're turning your neighorhood into a number extravagazna. Neighborhood Services will be on hand with details on registering your bicycles (including serial numbers), supplying paint kits for house numbers on the curb as well as engravers to engrave indentifying numbers on valuables for identification purposes in case the property is stolen. It's not just any number party - it's a FUN number party!
 National Night Out Poster Contest
Help us celebrate 40 years of The Woodlands Township Neighborhood Watch by participating in the National Night Out poster contest. Residents are encouraged to create posters that illustrate the theme "Giving Crime a Going-Away Party" in The Woodlands. Submissions will be accepted through July 31, 2024. Judging will take place on August 2, 2024, with awards announced on August 5, 2024. Please view the National Night Out Poster Contest Rules and Entry Form for complete details.
Submissions will be judged bases on creativity and originality, interpretation of the theme, quality and overall impression of the design.
 We are promoting "Set It, Don't Forget It' as our Project 365 National Night Out safety campaign. The focus is on the importance of setting various alarms to enhance security and prevent crimes. Whether it's setting your home alarm, using your car alarm, changing the batteries in your smoke alarm, or even carrying a personal alarm on your key ring, these actions can help prevent you from becoming a victim. Summertime often means teenagers may be home alone while parents are at work. Please remind your teens to follow these tips for garage door safety to prevent burglaries.
