Pleasant Ridge & Ramsgate Community Watch - About Our Organization
The Pleasant Ridge & Ramsgate Community Watch, is a non-profit organization in Raleigh, North Carolina. We are not a home owners association, but merely neighbors. Our goals are simple: work with Raleigh Police Department to reduce crime in our neighborhood and unite our neighbors to be effective community watch members. In addition to that, we are working with the City of Raleigh to enhance our neighborhood and make it a safer & better place to live. Read our Vision Statement to get a better understanding of what our group is about and what we want to achieve in our neighborhood.
On May 10th, 2006, Pleasant Ridge & Ramsgate Community Watch completed Articles of Incorporation with the state of North Carolina. We adopted our By-Laws on September 15th, 2006. The North Caroline Department of Revenue accepted our non-profit status on October 4th, 2006.

Our group meets quarterly on the first Monday or Tuesday during the months of Febraury, May, August, and November. Each meeting will feature a "Hot Topic" where we have a special topic of interest that may feature a guest speaker. Our meetings are usually held at the First United Pentecostal Church on Lake Wheeler Road at 7:00 P.M. As we continue to grow and become a more unified group, we will have more community services and volunteer work available. Each year we sponsor a Street Sweep project in May, a community wide Yard Sale in June, and a Watermelon Social for National Night Out in August.
