Night to Unite photos
The Wayzata Crime Prevention Coalition was happy again this year to put on the Night to Unite program on August 2nd.
The days activities were filled with opportunities for residents and business owners alike to attend lunch for a special presentation by Wayzata Police Chief Mike Risvold.
Longtime resident and business owner Gordy Engel was presented the Jim Fish award by Board member Mark Scheidhauer.
Later in the day, Wayzata Police, Fire, City staff, elected officials, and McGruff (Crime Coalition Mascot) visited two-dozen neighborhood parties throughout Wayzata and Long Lake. It is always a great way to get out, meet and visit with your neighbors.

Night 2 Unite Scheduled for August 2nd, 2011
Minnesota’s Night to Unite is scheduled for next Tuesday, August 2nd. The Wayzata Crime Prevention Coalition’s (WCPC) Night to Unite luncheon at the Wayzata Country Club kicks off the day at 12:00 noon. The public is invited and it is always a great, well attended event. The WCPC will present the annual Jim Fish Award for crime prevention. Chief Mike Risvold will speak about some of the more interesting and sometimes bizarre cases that the department has worked on in the last year. The cost is $20 and reservations can be made by contacting the Wayzata Chamber of Commerce at 952-473-9595. Because the country club is closed on Monday, reservations need to be made to the Chamber office by noon on Friday, July 29th.
On Tuesday evening beginning at 6:00 PM, local police officers, firefighters, elected officials, city staff, and McGruff will make neighborhood visits throughout Wayzata and to several parks in Long Lake. Neighborhood block captains in Wayzata have received schedules for estimated times of the visits. The stops in Long Lake include three parks – Harden Park at 6:20 – Dexter Park at 6:55 – Holbrook Park at 7:20. This is a great opportunity to ask questions of your police, fire, city staff and elected officials. Most of all, it’s a great time to connect with your neighbors as a reminder to look out for one another. We look forward to seeing everyone next Tuesday for Night to Unite!!!

Crime Prevention picnic a hit
The Wayzata Crime Prevention Coalition's 2nd annual Community Picnic was a hit last night as about 70 neighbors met at the Wayzata Depot. Hot dogs, root beer floats, chips and water were served to the community by the board members of the WCPC.
The Mound K9 unit gave a demonstration of their capabilities of stopping a suspect, and the Wayzata Fire Department showed how they utilize their rescue and fire fighting boat.
The highlight of the evening came as members of the Lake Minnetonka SWAT team set off a flash that showed how disorienting the tool can be when entering a building.
The Mound K9 unit gave a demonstration of their capabilities of stopping a suspect, and the Wayzata Fire Department showed how they utilize their rescue and fire fighting boat.

Wayzata Neighborhood Block Captains dinner and training
Dear Block Captains,
We are excited about the annual Wayzata Neighborhood Block Captains dinner and training coming up in April. Please join the Wayzata Crime Prevention Coalition and fellow Block Captains on April 18th from 6:00 to 7:30 pm at the Anchor Bank Training Center on the 3rd floor. Gina and her wonderful staff from the Wayzata Bar & Grill will be providing dinner. Take a look at the attached flier for more information on our annual meeting.
In the past you have received notifications from Robin Lindquist concerning events such as this. Robin volunteered many, many hours during her time with the Wayzata Crime Prevention Coalition. She retired from the board at the end of last year and will be greatly missed. We are very thankful for all that she accomplished! My name is Max Windmiller and I am going to do my best to pick up where Robin left off. I am a Wayzata resident (Ridgeview Drive), second year board member and local business owner. I look forward to seeing everyone at the Block Captain meeting.
Thanks for your continued commitment to making safety a priority in Wayzata!
Sincerely,
Max Windmiller
