Pocomoke Neighborhood Watch-

Pocomoke City Police Dept

"Citizens of Pocomoke, I am honored to serve as your Neighborhood Watch Program Coordinator. Since my appointment in November 2025, we have observed a notable decrease in local crime; however, our work continues. I remain committed to ensuring our community stays safe and connected.

To address your questions and concerns, I invite you to attend a Neighborhood Watch Meeting on Monday, March 2, 2026, at 8:00 PM. This meeting will provide an opportunity to engage directly with me and representatives from the Pocomoke City Police Department to discuss how we can better serve our neighborhoods. The meeting will be held at the Pocomoke City Police Department, located at 1500 Market Street.

Furthermore, we are currently seeking candidates interested in representing their respective voting districts. These representatives will maintain a direct line of communication with me to keep neighborhoods informed and to proactively address local concerns.

Your voice matters, and I hope to see you on March 2 as we continue building a safer, stronger community together."

Corporal Ray Fitchett

Neighborhood Watch Program Coordinator
