Professional Guard and Patrol Services for a Busy Event Weekend

The Blessing of the Fleet race in Narragansett, Rhode Island, is one of the state’s most celebrated traditions. It draws thousands of visitors each year to the town’s scenic coastline. While this event is a highlight for the community, it also creates unique challenges for nearby residential properties. Increased traffic, visitor parking, and heavy foot traffic can impact the safety and comfort of local residents.

In 2025, SecurityRI provided dedicated security services for condominiums located near the event. Our goal was to protect residents, reduce potential risks, and maintain a safe environment throughout the busy weekend.

Our Role: Patrol Officers for Narragansett Condos

Partnering with property managers we ensured residents stayed safe and ensured properties remained secure during the busy race weekend.

The security plan covered:

  • Patrol Officers On-Site: Providing a visible security presence to deter unwanted activity and reassure residents.
  • Branded Company Vehicles: Using marked patrol vehicles for continuous monitoring of parking lots, entrances, and shared areas.
  • Quick Response: Remaining prepared to address any safety concerns or unauthorized activity on the property.

This straightforward approach allowed condo residents to enjoy peace of mind while the event took place nearby.
