The community is invited to join their neighbors, law enforcement and fire department teams at the Mountain Village Fire Station (411 Mountain Village Boulevard) for a free bbq (hamburgers and hot dogs) and family-friendly fun including ice cream social, corn hole, bouncy castle and tours of a police car, fire truck and ambulance.
National Night Out, a part of the National Association of Town Watch, involves over 38 million people in 16,000-plus communities from all 50 states, U.S. territories, Canadian cities and military bases worldwide.
National Night Out is an annual community-building campaign that promotes police-community partnerships and neighborhood camaraderie to make our neighborhoods safer, more caring places to live. Furthermore, the event provides a great opportunity to bring police and neighbors together under positive circumstances.
“National Night Out gives our community a fantastic chance to connect with local first responders,” said Mountain Village Police Chief Chris Broady. “Residents will learn what resources are available to them, get an up-close look at our emergency response equipment and build those important relationships with the people who serve them. It’s one of our favorite nights of the year.”
