Been
officially
the
CRO
for
almost
a
year,
I
filled
in
for
the
position
for
a
short
time
before
that
the
CRO
does
a
lot
of
things
primarily
outreach
to
a
lot
of
different
groups,
but
I
also
act
as
a
liaison
for
neighborhood
groups.
Any
concerned
citizen
who
has
an
issue
that
maybe
is
going
to
take
a
little
more
time
or
other
City
departments
to
be
involved
to
fix.
I,
can
kind
of
help
coordinate
that
response
to
help
get
their
solution,
even
if
it
doesn't
end
up
being
in
the
police
department.
Part.
B
Do
a
lot
of
different
small
events
throughout
the
community.
We
also
do
larger
events
like
our
national
night
out
event:
every
fall,
the
first
tuesday
in
august.
It's
a
national
event.
It's
a
huge
event.
We
invite
a
lot
of
people,
try
to
get
as
much
of
the
community
together
as
we
can
and
then
everywhere.
In
between
that
we
have
our
annual
spring
campaign,
carving
with
cops.
B
We
do
a
lot
of
different
programs
with
the
boys
and
girls
club
and
then
any
other
thing
that
we
can
do
out
in
the
community,
depending
on
the
news
of
the
day
or
situations
and
aims.
For
example,
traffic
safety,
bike,
walk
drive.
Smart
is
one
that
we
came
up
with
this
last
spring.
We
have
different
initiatives
like
that.
They
come
up
as
well.

A
A
B
Is
a
fantastic
fun
event:
I,
always
love
to
trigger
trading
as
a
kid
in
Ames,
it's
a
little
bit
different
than
the
small
town
that
I
came
from
because
there's
a
lot
of
traffic
there's
a
lot
of
new
residents
may
be
people
that
haven't
been
here
for
very
long
or
don't
know
the
streets
very
well.
So,
ultimately,
safety
is
the
biggest
concern
just
making
sure
that
the
kids
and
their
parents
are
looking
out
for
potential
danger.
B
We
try
to
get
as
much
information
as
we
can
out
to
potential
drivers
to
tell
them
to
look
out
for
families
as
they're
out
trick-or-treating,
but
ultimately
being
defensive
as
a
trick-or-treater
and
a
parent
of
a
trick-or-treater
is
important.
So
you
know
bright,
reflective,
costumes
or
reflective
tape
on
bags
or
costumes,
I,
always
loved,
wearing
a
mask
when
I
was
a
kid
but
masks
limit.
How
far
you
can
see-
and
I
remember
having
to
lift
the
mask
up
and.
A
B
Know
try
to
figure
out
where
I
was
going,
so
you
know
maybe
face
paint
instead
of
a
mask
and
then
just
making
sure
you're
looking
for
vehicles,
other
pedestrians,
bicyclists,
all
the
modes
of
transportation.
We
have
here
in
town
and
then
make
eye
contact
with
people
before
you
cross
an
intersection.
Parents
can
really
do
a
lot
by
keeping
a
close
attention
on
their
kids,
keep
their
kids
within
arm's
reach
and
just
slow
down
and
enjoy
it
for.
A
B
We
do
various
safety
walks
from
time
to
time.
The
campus
town
safety
walk
is
probably
the
one
that
we've
done
the
most
consistently.
Ultimately,
what
we
do
is
we
bring
in
different
groups
from
student
groups
to
neighborhood
groups,
to
city
staff
to
all
walk
through
different
areas
in
campustown
from
the
traditional
campus
town,
Welch
and
Chamberlain,
you
would
think
of
all
the
way
over
to
beach
and,
as
far
south
I
believe
as
storm,
and
we
walk
through
those
areas
and
look
for
street
lights
out
overgrown
trees,
sidewalks
that
may
be
in
disrepair.
B

A
B
The
campaign
was
launched
in
the
spring
and
it
was
our
way
of
trying
to
deal
with
transportation
safety
issues.
So
Ames
was
not
exactly
designed
for
all
of
the
different
modes
of
transportation
that
we
have
and
increasing
infrastructure
is
expensive
and
it's
difficult
to
do
with
the
structure
of
our
city,
sometimes
so
we're
looking
at
creative
solutions
that
sometimes
take
time
and
money.
So
the
police
department
tried
to
find
a
creative
way
to
deal
with
some
of
these
issues
to
increase
safety,
so
by
co-op
drive.
B
Smart
is
a
campaign
meant
to
increase
safety
through
respect,
so
we
focus
on
the
behaviors
of
transport,
not
so
much
the
infrastructure,
the
laws
or
anything
like
that.
We
touch
on
some
of
those
things,
but
mostly
it's
the
behaviors.
So
just
respecting
your
fellow
travelers
I.
All
the
modes
of
transportation
are
equal.
They
all
have
their
part.
They
all
have
their
roles.
You
know
a
lot
of
people
get
upset
with
bicycles
on
the
street
and
say:
bicycles,
don't
belong
on.
The
street.
Bicycles
have
just
as
much
right
to
be
on
the
street
as
a
vehicle.
B
We
get
out
of
the
community
as
often
as
we
can.
We
update
the
website
regularly.
We
go
out
and
do
presentations.
I
have
a
presentation
that
I'll
do
for
any
group
that
would
like
I've
done
a
couple
for
larger
groups
here:
names
smaller
groups
as
well.
Anybody
that
wants
to
hear
more
about
the
program
and
really
hear
the
different
things
that
they
can
do
to
increase
safety.
I
think
it
is
a
beneficial
program.
It
is
a
little
bit
outside
the
box
of
what
most
people
would
normally
think.
A
A
Like
more
information
on
how
you
can
bike,
walk
or
drive
smart,
