National Night Out celebrates safe communities on Tuesday, August 2
The Mountain Village Police Department and Village Court Apartments (VCA) are teaming up once again to host the tenth annual National Night Out Tuesday, August 2 from 5 to 8 p.m.
The entire community is invited to join their neighbors, law enforcement and fire department teams at the Village Court Apartments (415 Mountain Village Blvd.) for a free barbeque (hamburgers and hot dogs), 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. This well-known and celebrated annual event is an annual community-building campaign that helps promote police-community partnerships and neighborhood camaraderie.
“This is a night for the Town of Mountain Village and our neighboring communities to stand together to promote awareness, safety and neighborhood unity. National Night Out showcases the vital importance of police-community partnerships and constituent/community involvement in our quest for a safer community,” said Mountain Village Police Chief Chris Broady.
