- Teenage Boys Pranking at 1:30AM!Posted on: 2011-07-07About 30 minutes ago, our household was woken up by the sound of firecrackers going off on our front porch. Minutes later, we flashed our porch light multiple times (hoping to scare whoever was outside) and saw two teenage boys on the opposite side of the street running away. This happened at 1:30 AM. The cops were notified and said they were going to send out a car to patrol the area. Our main question was: What are teenage boys doing running around the neighborhood at this time? I would like to ask all parents to make sure their children are not sneaking out at night after the rest of the house has gone to bed. No one wants to think it's their child, but sometimes you never know. Every teenager needs to be told that these kinds of things aren't funny and can get very serious. This happened on Oaklawn Park Drive and the kids ran in the direction of Saratoga Estates Road.
- Sales solicitationsPosted on: 2011-07-05Has anyone noticed an increase in the number of sales people going door to door in the neighborhood ? We have recently had people selling wireless service and windows and kids selling magazines. Aside from Boy Scouts/Cub Scouts selling popcorn (which I have no problem with) with adult supervision, it seems the sales activity has increased greatly.
- strangers selling in our neighborhoodPosted on: 2011-06-24do not feel safe when strangers come to my door like today. I thought there was no solicitation in our neighborhood, we have been here 17 years and it has happened too often. Today he would not take a polite no for an answer, very pushy and on this beautiful day I have had to shut my front door. What can I do as an individual and what can the subdivision do?
- Yardsale itemsPosted on: 2011-06-20Due to the rain and scheduling on Saturday, I was unable to set out a few large furniture items for the yardsale, but still want to get rid of them. I have a Cherry Armour, brown leather loveseat, 32' Sony TV, and a 2 person round Cherry Kitchen Table. Great prices as we need to get rid of them.

- Black Widow Spiders in the poolPosted on: 2011-05-31My neighbors are members of the pool and we are considering joining but just got word and pics of Black Widow spiders in the main pool and the childrens pool. This is a major concern that should get immediate attention! Please keep us posted as to when this problem is addressed.
- Swim LessonsPosted on: 2011-05-30Are any of the guards at the pool certified to give swim lessons? We are interested in hiring someone to work with our 6 year old daughter throughout the summer on weekday nights.

- Derby eve attempted car break insPosted on: 2011-05-07On May 7th about 3:30 am we caught two 17 y/o teens walking around trying to break into cars. I was sitting out waiting and saw them originally on Saratoga Hill Road but turned up Whitney Hill Road. They were trying almost every vehicle either parked on street or in driveways. Two other officers, who responded here, and I caught them at Saratoga Hill Ct after they went up and tried cars on that street. We were unable to find any cars they actually got into. If you know of anyone whose car was broke into this night, please give me a call at 379-3507. We identified both subjects and advised their parents. Just FYI, these are not the same teens seen prior. Looks like we have at least two groups hitting the cars at night.

502-403-7119Website:www.RutledgeEnvironmental.com - RE: 4-10 car theftsPosted on: 2011-04-30I'm the one who saw the two teenagers trying to break into cars. This happend around 315 am. They hit cars on Saratoga Hill Road also that night. They were both w/m's 16-18 y/o. One had short hair other seemed to have longer more curly hair. One was blonde. The other might have had dark hair but was too dark to see. Both tall with ave to slim builds. They were on foot and just walking up and down the court trying car doors. If your out or up late, look outside once in a while and see if anyone is walking around. They either may be cutting between houses or parking their vehicle at the end of courts. Remember to call the police and report ANY thefts as it helps develop patterns. I get off work around that time and drive around some of the subdivision before going home looking for them when I can.
- Car VandalismPosted on: 2011-04-20Would the person who posted about the 4-10 auto break-ins please post the description of the suspects? They apparently made the rounds again last night. I'd like to have an idea of who to be watching for.
- Car Break-ins 4/10Posted on: 2011-04-132 male teenagers were seen at 3:15 AM Sunday, April 10, trying to break into cars. We were able to give the police a discription! They were lifting the handles to see if the cars were unlocked. By the time my husband got shoes on to go after them, they had disappeared down the street. He drove around the subdivision and did not see them. I called 911-Several Metro Louisville officers came quickly and drove the neighborhood. These are believed to be residents of Saratoga Woods. After letting a few friends in the neighborhood know about this, they told me their cars had been gone through. This happened on Saratoga Hill and Whitney Hill Roads. They were seen on the court. If you notice anything OR if your car or property is vandalized in any way, you MUST call the police to make a report. They will start watching more closely. If a report is not made, then the police cannot help us out. This is not the first time for this. It also happened about a month ago.
Where are the parents of these teens? Do they have any idea that their kids are out at this time of the night? - Streets; not parking lots.Posted on: 2011-04-13Surely, any large R.V. owners are aware that a narrow residentual street is not the place for such vehicles. Our HOA by-law permits parking for 24 hr. per month, yet the R.V. on Saratoga Woods Ct. has been observed at least 57 hr. in less than 10 days. I would think that common courtesy, and the safety of neighborhood children, would encourage them to make other arrangements. They may love that eye sore, but their neighbors do not!
- Car Break-insPosted on: 2011-04-13Again, we have had our car rummaged through in the middle of the night. This happened around 3:00 AM, Sunday morning. Where are the parents of the 2 teenage boys who were seen doing this? An unlocked door is not an open invitation to enter and take whatever is in the car. These instances are increasing and we need to contact the Jtown police to report all instances so they can catch these kids. Parents, please know where your kids are, especially at 3:00 in the morning!
- FoundPosted on: 2011-04-10On Sunday 4/10, some items were found in our yard near the electrical box. The items include sunglasses and car chargers. I'm assuming these are items that were taken and the individual did not want. :( If you are missing these items please describe so that they may returned to you.

- Door to DOOR SalesPosted on: 2011-03-15March 15 2011. It was almost dark outside when the second knock came at the door. They said they were carpet cleaners or hardwood floor cleaners and do windows. When they left I drove around the neighborhood and saw no car or truck sitting on the side of the road that they might have been driving to get a license plate number. There was no vehicle anywhere. Can there be signs at our enterances to stop solisitation in our neighborhood ???? I think our family's would feel safer if strangers weren't walking our streets. Can anyone respond to this????
