In our continuing forum on community safety and crime prevention, we now talk about some ideas to safeguard your home. 

This is the second in a series of crime prevention articles provided to you, courtesy of the Milton-Freewater Police Department. Our subject today is graffiti, more specifically, the relationship between prompt removal of graffiti and the incidence of recurrence at the same location. 

This is the first in a series of crime prevention suggestions offered to you by the Milton-Freewater Police Department. Citizens have growing concern over the rate of crime in our city, and have expressed a desire to have some general safety and prevention tips published as a service to our community. 

Located just south east of town this park was once home to the original Milton Power Plant.  Located next to the Walla Walla River this park is a quiet place to visit.  There is one shelter area that can be rented (no water or counter tops – see rental facilities page), restrooms (seasonally open and maintained), swings, picnic tables.  This park is home to the steps of the Pioneers, which you can see our many local pioneers’ names on while you make the climb up the hill to the memorial marker above the park. 

Consisting of two little league/softball fields or as one soccer field this facility is highly used from spring through fall.  A restroom (seasonal) facility is available.
