West Kelowna Citizens Patrol is comprised of ‘volunteering’ citizens acting as “Eyes and Ears” for the RCMP, ICBC, BC Emergency Services and the District of West Kelowna Emergency Services. Would you like to make a difference where it matters most – your community? View our webpage for more information on becoming a member.
Traffic Watch is the ‘umbrella’ that covers multiple issues while driving – speeding, texting, cell phones, seat belts, other distractions, and Stop Means Stop - all aimed at reducing incidents on our roads. 
The RCMP and Crown Council depend on the support of our volunteers to assist them with the processing of incoming and outgoing subpoenas on a bi-weekly basis as well as recording and verifying witness names. Subpoenas can be time-sensitive documents and require special attention to ‘Diary Dates’, keeping Crown Council informed as to the status of all subpoenas. 
Locating a stolen vehicle can be a very rewarding moment. Citizens Patrol volunteers have the capability to verify whether a vehicle has been stolen by entering the license plate number into their onboard computer. Also, wouldn’t it be nice to know if your insurance sticker is about to expire? We do that as a courtesy when doing a Parking Lot Audit – a friendly notification is left on the vehicle notifying the driver. 
Do you have young children? Our FREE Child ID is a crime prevention and awareness program designed for you to have accurate documentation about your child on record in case of an emergency. The service is provided by our volunteers who will footprint children under the age of five, and fingerprint those five and over. 
The West Kelowna Community Policing Fraud Awareness program has expanded its mandate and has develop training programs for presentation to groups in the community on fraud awareness. A manual of all types of scams, schemes and frauds was also developed in order to inform WKCP volunteers and members of the general public of current fraudulent schemes.
The program will continue to develop and expand as needs are identified in order to make West Kelowna residents more fraud aware. 
There is comfort in knowing someone you care about is being checked on. We can do that for you, daily… Monday to Friday... View our webpage for more information on registering your loved one.
