May 2018 Lakewood Crime Report
by Randee King on Jul.05, 2018, under Neighborhood Watch
Per Officer Beasley:
I hope everyone is having a great summer. There appears to be a slight increase in activity in Lakewood. I have asked our patrol division to spend some extra time in and around Lakewood in the early morning hours. Your neighborhood is only as secure as you make it. Don’t be a victim because you gave someone an easy opportunity. Remember…
· Lock your vehicles
· Do not leave things of value in vehicles
· Report suspicious behavior
· Report crimes to the police. We cant deploy assets to an area if we are unaware of an issue.
If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to contact me.

July 2018 Lakewood Yard of the Month
by Randee King on Jul.05, 2018, under Garden Club News
152 North Burnett Drive owned by Delilah and Ray Cranford sits on the Bay and went down during Ike. Despite everything being swept away in 2008 including many trees they came back rebuilding better than ever. Brick by brick from front to back they redesigned their gorgeous home which is showcased by this attractive yard. Cheers to the Cranford’s for their Texas tenacity to reconstruct like so many others in our Lakewood Community and surrounding area.

June 2018 Lakewood Yard of the Month
by Randee King on Jun.10, 2018, under Garden Club News

424 South Burnett was built in 1951. Frankie and Scott Jackson known for their annual “Jackson Jingle” have lived in it for the last 30 years. Their attractive remodel begins with this smart, balanced, tranquil yard that both the Jackson’s work hard to create. Scott refers to Frankie as his “flower girl” who brings much care to their charming setting.
