Neighbourhood Safety and Crime Prevention Walk Coming Up in Lakeshore

Residents are invited to take part in the upcoming community safety walk aimed at raising awareness about crime prevention and promoting personal safety. The guided walk will offer participants the chance to learn practical strategies to reduce opportunities for crime and gain valuable safety tips. 

Throughout the walk, local officials, including Lakeshore Fire and Essex County OPP, will answer questions and lead open discussions about crime prevention.  

“Feelings of safety and well-being are a critical part of building strong communities. This event is a great way for our residents to learn proactive ways to stay safe in a supportive setting,” said Mayor Tracy Bailey. 

The walk will begin with opening remarks at the Lakeview Park South parking lot. Participants will then complete a 2-kilometre loop through downtown Belle River. 
 
Participants are reminded to wear comfortable walking shoes and dress appropriately for the weather. The walk will occur rain or shine!
