Canadian Lakes Mobile Watch
BY ROGER STOBERT
The annual Mobile Watch picnic and golf outing are events that allow the community to show its appreciation for all that the Mobile Watch volunteers do. This includes performing weekly patrols of Canadian Lakes, helping stranded and lost residents and visitors, watching for suspicious activities and safety violations like leaf burning, and helping Canadian Lakes Safety control traffic during the Independence Day parade, fireworks display, Winter Carnival, and other large crowd events. These events are sponsored by local businesses, the CLA, and the CLPOC.
The Mobile Watch annual picnic will be held on Wednesday, August 26, contingent upon any COVID-19 virus restrictions, at the Pines Pavilion beginning about 4:30 p.m. All current Mobile Watch volunteers, Canadian Lakes Safety employees, and their spouses/significant others are welcome and should mark the date. Attendees should bring a place setting, beverages, and, if desired, an appetizer or dessert. Everything else, burgers and hot dogs, buns, condiments, and salads, etc., will be provided. Attendees, please inform your Area Captain if you plan to attend and how many will be joining you.
The Mobile Watch annual golf outing will be held at The Pines Golf Course on Wednesday, August 26 beginning with a shotgun start at 9:00 a.m. Like previous outings, some interesting and fun surprises await the players on various holes. All current Mobile Watch volunteers, Canadian Lakes Safety employees, and their spouses/significant others are eligible to participate.

There are days they travel across the country,
Other times, they’ll just climb the stairs. I’ve heard they’ve flown to stars in our galaxy, Exploring where nobody dares.
There are days that they’re on a special mission, Other times, they’re there for the ride. I’ve heard they will search for things like lost wallets, And hunt for the grandpas who hide.
There are days they flee those trying to catch them, Other times, they’ll be in pursuit. I’ve heard they’ve escaped from villains quite frightening. Disguises have been their strong suit.
There are days they’ll change their outfits each hour,
Other times, they’ll wear the same clothes. I’ve heard it depends on where they are traveling, Someday to Africa, who knows?
There are days they take long naps quite exhausted, Other times, they won’t sleep a wink. I’ve heard they’ve traveled by train to Canada, Toronto and back in a blink.
There are days they dream of South America, Other times, it’s Europe that calls. I’ve heard they would like to go to the northeast, To see the Niagara Falls.
There are days they spend cuddling in my rocker, Other times, they’re in the armchair. I’ve heard these two planning all their adventures, My grandson and his teddy bear.
