Woodstock Police Chief Bill Renton says the goal of the campaign is to heighten awareness of the simple things we can all do to protect our property and personal safety and wellbeing.

"Our police officers work with many individuals and groups in our community to promote crime prevention initiatives throughout the year. We are supporting this year’s OACP Province-wide campaign, which asks each of us to do the small things that add up to big crime prevention success."

Renton adds the OACP Crime Prevention Booklet has been posted on the Woodstock Police website.

"There's some contact information on some of the different agencies that help out with national or provincial frauds and scams and there's really good literature on some crime prevention tips."
