Playground Vandalism
The community playground has recently been vandalized. The damage done to the equipment made the area temporarily unsafe for play. Please note that these issues have been fixed.
If you see any damage to the playground that compromises its safety, please notify the Board or Cedar Management as quickly as possible so it can be repaired.
If you witness someone intentionally damaging the playground or any common areas OR participating in any illegal activity on HOA property, please call the York County Sherriff's Office. This will increase the amount of patrolling that will take place in our neighborhood and therefore act as a crime deterrent.

Neighborhood Watch
Creekʹs Edge Neighborhood Watch acts as a deterrent to crime by its mere existence, which is made known via signage at community entrances and through its monthly newsletter. Neighborhood Watch promotes mutual concern among neighbors and enhances the communityʹs sense of well‐being by having in place a network of volunteer ʺwatchersʺ, by encouraging all residents to be aware of and report questionable, unsafe or illegal activities, and by providing incident updates and safety and security information in its monthly
newsletter (coming in August!).
The purpose of Neighborhood Watch is to observe and report possible illegal activities, and to maintain a working relationship with the York County Sheriffʹs Department. Neighborhood Watch does NOT engage in any intervention or enforcement activities.
Will you join us? If interested, please contact creeksedgeneighborhoodwatch@yahoo.com

Safety Concerns
Below are various safety and security concerns that have come up in the neighborhood over the last few months. If you have any additional questions about these, please click here to e-mail your Neighborhood Watch Committee.
Car Theft
Be aware that a car was stolen from a home on Winding Branch Road. This occured one night in March. A report was filed with the York County Sherriff's Office.
Mark Before You Dig
Recently, a neighbor hit a gas line while digging a relatively shallow hole to plant a tree. Luckily, no one was hurt, but accidents of this nature can be incredibly dangerous - even fatal. If you are going to do ANY digging in your yard, please have PUPS come out and mark your lines first. To contact them, call 811 from a landline in South Carolina.
NO SMOKING on the community playground. Please be respectful of the children that play there.
Children at Play
Various neighbors have shown concern about where some children are playing. In general, please be aware of where your kids are spending their time (especially with school letting out), and advise them to avoid the dangerous places listed below. We all want Creek's Edge to remain a safe place!
The wooded area behind the community playground: It's highly recommended that children do not play in this area. It is not kept up by the HOA and could be potentially dangerous. Please advise your children to avoid this area.
Electrical boxes are incredibly dangerous. Whether on your property, or someone else's, please do not allow anyone to climb on these large green boxes.
Unoccupied homes and property: Some houses in the neighborhood are not currently occupied and are for sale. This is still private property and children playing there is considered trespassing. Also, it is in everyone's best interest to ensure these homes are in good condition so that they will sell quickly.
