Block Captains are needed to serve on the Neighborhood Watch Committee. The role of the Block Captain is to assume responsibility for keeping 10-15 homes informed about criminal incidents in the community and to provide them with information about how to secure their homes. Block Captains are vital to the success of offsetting increased criminal activity in the Potomac Knolls Community and to the success of the Neighborhood Watch Committee.

Residents joining neighbors to build community spirit and unity is the first line of defense against crime. Research shows that when neighbors know and look out for each other criminal incidents in the community decrease. Safety within our community is extremely important and by working together we can make a difference.
