WESTMINSTER COMMUNITIES TO PARTICIPATE IN 2019 NATIONAL
NIGHT OUT
On Tuesday, August 6, 2019, seven neighborhoods throughout
the City of Westminster will join forces with thousands of communities
nationwide for the 36th Annual National Night Out event. National Night Out
(NNO) is an annual community-building campaign that promotes police-community
partnerships and neighborhood camaraderie. The National Association of Town
Watch (NATW) sponsors NNO in partnership with law enforcement and community
groups. Westminster neighborhoods will host a variety of special events, including
block parties, cookouts, youth activities, and visits from police officers,
fire/EMS and elected officials.
Chief Thomas Ledwell states, “National Night Out is a great
opportunity for community members to get to know their local police officers
and fellow neighbors during a fun event designed to promote crime prevention
awareness. We encourage everyone who is able to participate to bring your
families out and enjoy your local neighborhood event with us.”
In a recent newsletter, Delegate Susan Krebs wrote:
Come out and join your neighbors for National Night Out. NNO
is a FREE Family Event bringing neighbors together to promote a positive
community-police relationship- making our communities safer. The fun- filled
event hosts vendors, food, and interactive activities for kids, while learning
about the services of the Police and Emergency Services.
Residents in Carroll County are invited to join our First
Responders at one of the locations below. You are encouraged to lock your home,
