The OKC police are starting the Neighborhood watch training program again. If you are interested in becoming a patroller, please let us know at harvesthillssouth@gmail.com. You can register by the link below and we will meet you there on Thursday, 9/30 to go over the Harvest Hills South program.
If you can spare anytime once a week, every two weeks or even once a month, you can help! We have patrollers who patrol mornings, during the day and in the evenings. If you need a patrol buddy, we can provide that too.
We can really use your help. The current patrollers have been doing it for over 3 years.
Please make sure we have your contact information in case the patrollers see something while they are out so they can contact you. Several people leave garage doors open at night. Your information is NOT shared outside of the patrollers. Please consider joining and being a part.

Hey Neighbor!
Did you know that you can keep your neighborhood safe from the comfort of your car??? Read on to learn more about Neighborhood Watch Patrol!
Neighborhood Watch Patrol is about neighbors partnering with the police to become trained observers and reporters in their neighborhood.

This training will be offered from 6:00-7:00pm on Thursday, September 30th in North Oklahoma City and on Tuesday, November 2nd in South Oklahoma City.
Just a reminder to come eat at Johnnie’s any time today (or multiple times), and you can help support our neighborhood! Just mention you are there to support Harvest Hills South, and we will receive 20%!
Reminder! Friday, September 24th from 11:00am to close at 9pm, is our “Dine Out” fundraising night.
Be sure to stop by “Johnnie’s Charcoal Broiler” for lunch and dinner but make sure you let them know you are there to support Harvest Hills South! We receive 20% of our sales! Invite your family, friends, church group, football team, and neighbors! Johnnie’s has been gracious to allow us to have the 4th Friday of each month as a “Harvest Hills South” Dine Out night to help us raise money for our neighborhood.
Here is a link to the menu. They have a lot of great options! You can also use the drive through but you have to tell them you are supporting Harvest Hills South. https://johnniesburgers.com/ 6629 NW Expressway – (405) 470-0177
Last month we received $71.40. This is a great and easy fundraiser. Please go by and support us! This money will be used for our Dream Big Projects. We still need electricity at two entrances and we need sprinklers before we can replace the bushes and landscaping that did not survive the ice storm.
