HOW DO I GO ABOUT FORMING A TOWN WATCH?
Discuss the idea of forming a town watch with your family.

If everyone agrees it would be a good idea, then discuss it with your neighbors to see if there is any interest in your neighborhood or professional - commercial - business community.

If there is interest, then decide to hold a preliminary meeting with the initial parties interested and the police department liaison.

Contact the Police Department at 215-322-6111 and ask to speak with or leave a message for the Operations Lieutenant.  The Lieutenant will put you in contact with the police department liaison for Town Watch groups.

When contacted by the Liaison, finalize your initial meeting and the officer will help to get your group up and running.

WILL WE NEED TO BUY SPECIAL EQUIPMENT OR TO COMMIT TO A SPECIFIC TIME TO PATROL OUR NEIGHBORHOOD?
The short answer is No!  The police department liaison will discuss a number of community policing methods that work with you.  Your group and your resources will determine your degree of participation, but sound common sense and the Law will govern your actions.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION:
THE POLICE DEPARTMENT DOES NOT RECOMMEND OR ENDORSE THE CARRYING OF FIREARMS OR OTHER WEAPONS BY MEMBERS OF TOWN WATCH GROUPS WHILE ON TOWN WATCH PATROL OR DURING ANY OTHER TOWN WATCH ACTIVITIES.
