Quadrant Captains

Quadrant Captains help organize and publicize neighborhood meetings. They may also arrange quadrant meetings to address additional issues. Quadrant Captains help to recruit Block Captains in their quadrant. They can also recruit neighbors for the Citizen Alert Patrol if they wish.
Our square mile is divided into four quadrants as shown below. The quadrants are delineated by the east-west streets of 51st, 56th and 61st and the north-south streets of Peoria, Utica and Lewis.


The four quadrants contain several additions and subdivisions. The list below is not exhaustive but shows some of the subdivisions within each quadrant.

Block Captains

We need Block Captains for each block in our neighborhood! Please consider volunteering for this role. The main responsibility of a Block Captain is to distribute information about upcoming meetings to the neighbors on your block. You may also coordinate Neighborhood Watch activities, help arrange block parties or coordinate traffic calming efforts. If you would like to be a leader on your block, send an email toinfo@hellerpark.org or contact the Quadrant Captain for your area.
