| Home Security Alert |
| CrimeMapping.com – Helping You Build a Safer Community reflects one burglary in December and two this January within Nellie Gail Ranch. Sheriff investigators have confirmed both January burglaries that occurred early evening within 35 minutes this past weekend were conducted by the same crew. They used jammers to disable cameras and were in and out of each home within 10 minutes. The vehicle had fraudulent plates not associated with the vehicle they were on. The vehicles involved were not suspicious in appearance and were not parked on the streets for extended periods of time. The investigations are ongoing and active. While these incidents highlight how challenging it is to resolve these crimes, there is one positive all three had in common – neighbors cameras were able to be reviewed by the victims and the investigators to create a timeline and identify a potential vehicle and the community Flock cameras at entries also had images that law enforcement have been able to access. Neighbors are helping neighbors!! |
| Investigators encourage all homeowners to be extra vigilant onbehalf of yourself and your neighbors. |
| • If a vehicle parks on your street after dark and multiple people exit the vehicle and head to a trail head, call the sheriff immediately. All three of the above incidents involved three individuals.• If you have alarms, please set them when you leave.• Don’t leave valuables or safes in obvious places.• If you hear a neighbors alarm, call the Sheriff. |

| Moulton Arena |
| Moulton Arena will be Closed forRenovation January 6-24th The Equestrian Committee and Trails Committee have evaluated the Moulton Arena’s functionality and developed a renovation plan to modernize the arena and improve its functionality. The current arena is an irregular shape and its outdated racing rails reduce the usable surface of the arena. A plan has been developed to demo the existing railings and replace the single arena with a 50 foot diameter round pen for training and exercise separate from the arena. Adjacent to the round pen we will construct a 170 foot by 80 foot arena with modular railings. This project will provide an enhanced equestrian experience at Moulton Park in support of the Nellie Gail Ranch equestrian heritage. |
