MSgt Jason Burgess has invited the neighborhood to come to “Cookout with Cops” on Saturday, April 11, 2026.

Community invited to “Cookout with Cops” in South Oklahoma City

The community is invited to attend “Cookout with Cops,” a free community event hosted by Neighborhood Alliance of Central Oklahoma, the Oklahoma City Police Department and Calle Dos Cinco.

The event is from noon to 4 p.m. on April 11 at Plaza Calle Dos Cinco, SW 25th and S. Harvey Ave. Free food and refreshments will be served from noon to 2 p.m. Activities include a custom car show, family-friendly games, community resources and information about neighborhood safety.

“Cookout with Cops” is the latest in a series of events designed to bring communities and OKC police officers together in a relaxed atmosphere to eat, meet and connect.

“Events like ‘Cookout with Cops’ help bring people together,” said Myron Mayberry, NACOK Executive Director. “It’s a great opportunity to connect the community to OKCPD officers in their neighborhoods, which encourages open dialogue, builds trust, and creates a welcoming space outside of traditional settings.”

The event is free and open to the public.

“Building strong relationships with the people we serve is one of the most important parts of our job,” said OKCPD Chief Ron Bacy. “Cookout with Cops gives our officers and residents a chance to meet, talk, and connect in a positive setting. These kinds of interactions help strengthen trust in our community.”

When Crisis Calls

MSgt Jason Burgess – Oklahoma Police Department – Hefner Division – Police Community Relations has invited us to come to a meeting at the Belle Isle Library on March 23, 2026 from 6-7:30. Click on the QR code to register or go to the Neighborhood Alliance (NACOK.org) website. 


Get Involved!

As the Holidays are approaching we want to make sure our neighborhood remains safe. 

Over the years, we have had as many as 18 neighbors that would give up an hour or two a week to

help patrol Harvest Hills South. Due to medical reasons and some neighbors moving out of the neighborhood, we need your help in rebuild our patrol unit back up. 

For several years, we had very few incidents occur in Harvest Hills South, but we are starting to see an increase in car break ins. 

Please “GET INVOLVED” and help keep Harvest Hills South a safe neighborhood!

Please contact us and let us know if you are interested and we can get you registered or click the link below. Training takes a little over about an hour at the Hefner Division Police Station.

How big is our neighborhood?

Did you know Harvest Hills South has 400 homes? Check out this map showing which houses are included in our voluntary neighborhood association!

This map shows the streets our Harvest Hills South Crime Watch patrols every day. This program helps us stay aware of suspicious activity in our community and allows an open communication line with our local law enforcement. Please email us at HarvestHillsSouth@gmail.com with your name and phone number so we can add your contact to the list we provide these volunteers. They will only contact you if needed, such as an open garage door.

Crime Patroller Training

Are you interested in taking a step toward neighborhood safety by volunteering in our neighborhood as a patroller? These volunteers need to attend a class to learn about how to best be the eyes and ears of our area for the police department as well as deterring crime by having an extra barrier of supervision. Trainings brought to you by nacok.org and OKC Police.

Notify Jaci or Tom Maquire harvesthillssouth@gmail.com if you want to attend and they will enroll you to reserve a seat.

March 21st Meeting

At this event we were joined by MSgt Skalla to discuss home security and ways we can keep our area crime free. If you were unable to attend we are sad you missed such a great speaker but we will be sending out some of the tips right here in the blog very soon so keep your eyes peeled as we move into the higher crime time of year.

As temps rise the petty crime rates rise and so it is up to all of us to find ways to deter crime through things like Environmental design as well as making sure we have an active crime watch patrol who is trained through the OKCPD. These classes are free and help educate our crime patrol on procedures as well as to build a relationship with the community police to be the eyes and ears of law enforcement. The next class will be April 13th 6:30-7:30 at the Hefner Police Division. Please reach out if this is something you want to attend.

Crime Patrol Volunteer- Harvest Hills South

Please let us know if you can spare a couple hours a week or month to help protect Harvest Hills South. We have people who can partner with you if needed. We have lost several patrollers due to illness and some have moved out of the neighborhood, so we really need your support. Let us know after you register and one of our patrollers will meet you there.

  • flexible with the scheduling- mornings, afternoon and evening shifts available.

How can we all help

  • Keep your outside lights on at night. Several streets are very dark and welcoming to crime.
  • Make sure we have your contact phone numbers, so the patrollers can call you if you have your garage door open at night.
  • Practice the 9pm rule. At 9pm, you check to make sure your garage and doors are closed and locked.
  • Look at your neighbors across from you to see if theirs is closed too. If theirs are open, call and let them know.

Let’s help protect each other.
