The May 10, 2008 Crime Fighter Event has come and gone. It was a wonderful success.  Lives were changed, community organizations met and are now working together, and a business got a contract. That is what this Fair was all about. Thanks to all who worked so hard and thanks to all who came.  NES-Watch has been asked by the County Board Chairman and the Sheriff to hold another Fair in the winter. Check back here often.
