Free Light Bulbs To Help Curb Crime In Boulder Hill

The sheriff's office and Oswego Township are teaming up for the exterior light giveaway.

OSWEGO, IL — Oswego Township and the Kendall County Sheriff’s Office has teamed up to provide high-efficiency LED light bulbs to the residents of Boulder Hill to light the outside of their homes in an effort to prevent crime. We hope that something as simple as illumination of a home’s exterior will help prevent anyone from becoming a victim of crime. The furnishing of the light bulbs will help provide added safety for our citizens.

Free LED lightbulbs will be available on Saturday, March 10 and March 17, between 10 a.m. and noon at 89 Boulder Hill Pass, Montgomery IL. Once you have picked up your LED light bulb we encourage residents to keep the porch lights on during the evening hours.

If you know of any senior citizens or residents with physical limitations without transportation, please contact Deputy Dan Briars at 630-553-7500 ext 1133 or email dbriars@co.kendall.il.us prior to March 10 to arrange a delivery date for light bulbs.
