Rangers are coming to Philly - the Guardian Angels they are not! By Van Stone vspfoundation@yahoo.com (215) 747-8746
In just a little while longer, Philadelphia residents will get a chance to meet its city’s newest Heroes. The Town Watch Rangers. Unlike regular citywide town watch or those other guys that risk their own personal safety to promote public safety, the Guardian Angels, the men and women Rangers are coming to town to work for gun control with a vengeance. And it’s personal. The Town Watch Ranger, a Volunteer Patrol Service, formally of the 52nd Street community Town Watch, will provide public safety, street cleaning and safer schools. Services include connecting Street Arteries and any of the neighboring blocks and businesses that carry residents from the parks through the city.
In other words, just like when the criminals clearly avoids trouble where ever they see, the Cops rolling down the block, the Firefighter racing to stop destructive fires or the Park Ranger protecting national tourism spots, that same no good crook that ‘s willing and able to shoot up the city in broad daylight, not giving a hoot if kids are out, is about to move on quickly when ever and where ever they come face to face with a Town Watch Ranger. Many of the new Ranger’s are men and women that have dealt with some kind of sudden loss due to wrong doing by happy go lucky attitude folks that only seem to understand Stop the violence when faced against another that’s willing to get it stopped by any means necessary. Through the work of the Town Watch Ranger they enable our children to lead healthier and more independent lives, teach parents to manage their children’s issues with success and confidence, and provide our citizens with opportunities that will help them to grow, develop and become value added contributors to the success of a changed Philadelphia. But they are not just about serving the 52nd Street area of West Philadelphia. They are encouraging any neighborhood leadership to communicate with them often. If you have ideas that may improve your community’s services or experiences, like summer camp, park protection, or alike, from which you and I can benefit, do not hesitate to give them a call and share your thoughts. The Town Watch Ranger can be reached at (215) 570-9952, contacting Ranger, Raymond Ward as the Director that is interested in assisting you with your problem. The Ranger’s look forward to partnering with you to continue to make your Community Outreach Program the best community behavioral health organization this city can offer its citizens.
