As of July 1, 2000 we have 29 members, of which 3 are on extended medical leave. Also, we have 2 clerical persons in our office from 1000 - 1200 hours on Mon; Tues; Thurs. and Fri.

In addition to the breakdown of our activities listed above we participated in several training exercises in order to enhance and sharpen our skills. In Feb. several members renewed their certificates for CPR/FIRST AID. Our next class will be Aug. 18. In March we toured Central Dispatch Center. Also at our March membership meeting Community Service Officer Lingford gave a presentation, thru lecture and video, on the effects of drug use and drug trafficking and how we can help. In April Deputy B. Huizenga and CSO Lingford, of the Banning Station RSO presented a traffic control seminar at our membership meeting providing us with valuable experience working with flares, traffic control procedures, cones, etc. In May Capt. Morris Bean of the Calimesa Fire Dept. demonstrated the correct use of our fire extinguishers and the proper equipment needed for our operation. We have assisted CSO Lingford in two Neighborhood Watch presentations and stand ready to assist her at anytime. We participated in a July 4 parade in the City. We attended the 1st. annual conference of the National Association of Citizens On Patrol and have a website at www.nacop.org/calimesa as members of that organization. The CHP ride-along program has been suspended until the fall as they are in a recruiting and training process at the present time. We have 4 applicants waiting the interview process for membership and hopefully we can get a training class set up by RSO for Sept. or Oct.

Our primary focus is to serve those that reside in the City of Calimesa and I feel we do so with pride and integrity. I want to thank the Calimesa City Council and the City Staff for their support of our program. To the Deputies of Calimesa who by their patience and understanding enhance our efforts and make us feel that we are contributing to making our City a safer place to live and work. Last, but by no means least, to our volunteers that make our program the envy of other programs in our area. We stand ready to serve in case of emergency or disaster and remain on-call.

Ralph Snook, Commander C.C.P.
