The most popular items taken in burglaries these days are large screen televisions, electronic games and laptop computers. It is very important that you record serial numbers to any item that has one, especially the noted items and any weapons you may have in the house. Doing this will greatly help should the police department come across your stolen item. If an item is taken and we have the serial number, we enter it into the Arkansas Criminal Information Center (ACIC). If the serial number of that stolen item is run through ACIC by a police officer we will know that it is stolen should we come across it. So please take the time to record all items that you possess that have serial numbers. This will be of great benefit to you and the police.

Some Gave All / All Gave Some

The citizens of North Little Rock are building a Veterans Memorial to honor ALL servicemen and women.  Special recognition will be given to residents of North Little Rock who have lost their lives in combat by having their names etched in granite on the Memorial.  The Memorial, located in the William F. Laman Library Plaza, will recognize all branches of the armed services, MIA and POW’s.

The Chamber of Commerce of North Little Rock is spearheading the community fund raising drive to raise $50,000 to complete the project.  Tax deductible donations of any amount may be made to the North Little Rock Veterans Memorial Fund.   The committee is asking businesses to consider making a donation to the fund.  Also, we are asking your assistance in distributing the information to your employees and placing the forms prominently  in your business.  The attached donation form may be reproduced.  Please e-mail this message to other individuals or groups you know who may be interested in this Memorial project.

All of us have been touched in some way by the men and women of our city who have pledged to protect our freedoms.  This is an opportunity for each of us to say “thank you” with a lasting tribute to those who have served.

The target date for completion of the Memorial is Veterans Day, November 11, 2010.  If your business/organization/church would like additional information or a presentation along with a scale model of the Memorial, please contact me.

Your help and support of the community-wide campaign is greatly appreciated.

May 8, 2010 from 8:00 A.M. – 12:00 P.M.

Why drive all over town looking for sales and wasting precious gas – come on up to Scenic Hill. Multiple houses participating.

On Thursday, May 6th the Argenta Neighborhood Boosters will host a
candidate forum for the State House District 39 race and State Senate
District 34 races.  This forum is open to the public and you and your
neighborhood residents are all invited.  The candidates will make their
opening statements with most of the meeting time dedicated to taking
questions from the audience.  This will be the ONLY candidate forum
focused exclusively on these two races.

These districts cover about 1/3 of NLR and parts of Wards 1, 2 & 3
including the following neighborhoods :Scenic Hill, Baring Cross, HOLT,
Mid-Cities, Dark Hollow, Sherman Park, Argenta, East Washington, Dixie,
Rose City, Glenview, Meadowpark, Poe, McAlmont.  In past years these
elected representatives have directed thousands of dollars to our City
and organizations like the CDC’s and Boys & Girls Clubs.  Since neither
of these races have Republican opposition, the winners of the May 18th
primary will be our elected representatives in the State Legislature.

I have attached a flyer for this forum, which you can send out to your
membership or other interested parties. The forum will be held at the
1st Presbyterian Church on the corner of 4th Street and Maple Street
downtown from 6:00 pm to 7:00 pm next Thursday May 6th.

I hope to see you there
