Lisa Hammond and Ray Medrano from the Citizens Patrol gave a presentation last week to Fillmore Rotary Club. They spoke on the main purpose of the Citizens Patrol, which is crime protection by civilian volunteers. They help the local Sheriff’s Department by being the eyes and ears throughout Fillmore, Piru and Bardsdale. When they are on patrol they report any suspicious activity to the Sherifff’s Dept. They also help work security for local parades, high school proms, and work Bike Rodeo, as well as traffic control. They work a fireworks booth with the Explorers Club so that they can raise money for scholarships. Courtesy Martha Richardson.
