Yes, I want to sign up for the HHW program!
I also want to know the next date for the HHW program.
| Suppose a holiday is coming up next weekend
and you want to leave town for a few days. You hope the police department can drive by
every once in awhile to check on your house. You also know that last year the police department answered over 28,000 calls for service and you afraid that they won't be able to check on your house very often. If there was only a way to be assured that someone would check on your house while you're gone. |

NEVER
FEAR, |

The fact is, police officers are so busy that they cannot drive by your house very often. So, the SMCPAAA, in support of the San Marcos Police Department, has developed the Holiday House Watch (HHW) program in an effort to serve you the community and the police department. By training SMCPAAA volunteers in the proper HHW operating procedures, more police officers will be allowed to perform more proactive patrolling, saving your valuable tax money for what you want police officers doing -- "catching bad guys" |
| There is no charge for this service. If you are leaving town for a holiday, all you need to do is provide the SMCPAAA with a few basic pieces of information. That information is handled through the San Marcos Police Department (for security reasons). Then, specially trained volunteers from the SMCPAAA will be assigned specific times that they are to drive by your residence and see if everything looks the way it is supposed to look. If something is seen out of place, these volunteers call a police officer to come inspect your residence. If everything is all right, the officer leaves and the volunteers goes back to looking at other residences involved with the program. Should something be out of place at your residence, the police will perform an investigation and if needed, contact you at a predetermined telephone number that you have provided. If you still want more information or you want to go ahead and sign up for the Holiday House Watch program, simply click on the button provided here.
