National Night Out – Oct 4th (5:30 p.m.)

National Night Out is designed to strengthen community relationships between residents and public service organizations such as police, city departments and charitable organizations that serve the community. Approximately 5,000 households are represented by the Neighborhood Associations that host the event, and our event generates 700+ attendees each year. This year’s event will be Tuesday, October 4, 2011, from 5:30-8:30 p.m. at Tietze Park.

The Dallas Police Department will have officers on hand to discuss crime watch type concerns as well as exhibits from local charitable organizations. We will have hotdogs and hamburgers provided by Skillman Church of Christ, a bounce house sponsored by the YMCA and the pie-eating contest will be back! We will also feature live music provided by Munger Place UMC.

The Carter Bloodmobile will be there as well. We need to get 20 people to donate blood to make it worth their trip, so come on out and give blood. There will also be face painting, on-site pet microchipping, and free key cutting.

This is a great opportunity to have some fun, meet your neighbors and learn something new about your community. We’ll see you there!
