      Thank you all for sharing your personal stories.  The ENP will not

      <div><br>

      <div>We have been members since moving to the neighborhood in
        2013, but have only called the officer a hand full of times.
         Most recently in September when I was traveling for work and my
        security company called to report a glass break alert.  My wife
        and 5 year-old were driving home at the time.  I was 2.5 hours
        away - a very helpless feeling.  The ENP officer was on duty and
        arrived at our house within a few minutes.  I immediately pulled
        up our security cameras on my phone and watched the officer
        inspect the perimeter of our home.  He waited until my wife and
        daughter arrived and walked through the house with them to
        ensure everything was safe.  Knowing they were safe when I was
        2.5 hours away was the best feeling in the world.  It turned out
        to be a false alarm but DPD had already been dispatched.  My
        alarm company was unable to cancel the DPD request - DPD arrived
        3 hours later to investigate the alarm.<br>
        <br>
        Please consider joining the ENP or renewing your membership if
        you haven’t already.  </div>
      <div><br>
      </div>
      <div>More members = more patrol hours.</div>

                                    <br>
                                    Neighbors, PLEASE join or renew your
                                    membership in our ENP. The number of
                                    hours of patrol we receive is
                                    directly related to how much revenue
                                    is generated by memberships. At the
                                    current low membership rate, we will
                                    have to reduce the number of patrol
                                    hours.  Scary in light of the very
                                    slow response time of Dallas Police,
                                    and the rising crime rate in our
                                    area. <br>
                                    <br>
                                    The rate is incredibly reasonable
                                    for the personal protection we
                                    receive. LESS THAN $1/DAY! <br>
                                    <br>
                                    Let’s band together as the great,
                                    helpful neighborhood we are and help
                                    one another by getting as many
                                    memberships/patrol hours as we can.
                                    <br>
                                    <br>
                                    I find it unfair that those who
                                    don’t join are “piggybacking” off
                                    the protection procured by those who
                                    do join. <br>
                                    <br>
                                    And don’t forget the incredibly
                                    generous subsidization offer of Jen
                                    and John Sanders. <br>
                                    <br>
                                    Best regards to all, Merry Christmas
                                    and Happy Holidays. Liza<br>
