More than 150 La Palma Neighborhood Watch Volunteers and guests attended its 26th Annual Awards Celebration Feb. 17 at the La Palma Community Center to recognize 37 volunteer Block Captains and Coordinators.
La Palma Neighborhood Watch was founded in 1985 to offer law enforcement “an extra set of eyes and ears in our homes and on our streets,” said President Dee Vincenti.
Police Chief Eric Nunez complimented the volunteers and said, “We value the bragging rights we have at law enforcement gatherings when we report that every month NW volunteers hand deliver a community newsletter to each resident of La Palma. Our city is a better place because of you.”
A special award was presented to District Coordinator Elfie Pangburn for her 25 years of service to the organization.
