The concept traces its roots <br />back to the days of colonial se�lements when <br />night watchmen patrolled the streets. <br />The Washington County Sheriff’s Office manages <br />the Neighborhood Watch program for the ci�es <br />and townships that are serviced by the Sheriff’s <br />Office for law enforcement services. These <br />communi�es include: <br />A�on, Baytown Township, Birchwood, <br />Dellwood, Denmark Township, Grant, Hugo, <br />Lake Elmo, Lake St. Croix Beach, Lakeland, <br />Lakeland Shores, Landfall, Mahtomedi, <br />Marine on St. Croix, May Township, Newport, <br />Pine Springs, Scandia, St. Mary’s Point, S�llwater <br />Township, West Lakeland Township, Willernie <br />Emergency…………………………………...911 <br />Non‐Emergency Dispatch………..651‐439‐9381 <br />Records/Reports……………………..651‐430‐7600 <br />Tip‐Line……………………....…..……..651‐430‐7850 <br />www.co.washington.mn.us <br />www.facebook.com/WCSOMN <br />History <br />Washington County Sheriff’s Office <br />Community Engagement Unit <br />15015 62nd Street North <br />S�llwater, Minnesota 55082 <br />What it IS... <br />Neighborhood Watch is an associa�on of <br />neighbors who contribute to the safety and <br />security of their neighborhood by working in <br />partnership with the Washington County Sheriff’s <br />Office.

It is not designed for par�cipants to <br />take personal risks to prevent crime. Par�cipa�on <br />in the program is not a guarantee that crime will <br />not occur in your neighborhood.
