FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Beat the Heat: National Night Out Moves to October 7 Galveston, Texas August 12, 2008 Dust off the lawn chairs and break out the potato salad recipes! Neighborhoods across the island are planning to celebrate National Night Out! Now in its 25th year, National Night Out (NNO) was originally organized to: - Heighten crime and drug prevention awareness; - Generate support for, and participation in, local anticrime efforts; - Strengthen neighborhood spirit and police community partnerships; and - Send a message to criminals letting them know neighborhoods are organized and fighting back. Due to our hot climate, cities throughout Texas, including Galveston, will be celebrating on Tuesday, October 7th. Local organizers are hoping the pilot date not only brings cooler weather, but that it also attracts even more participation. “This is a great way to meet your neighbors. We hope that by pushing the event into the fall even more people will choose to spend the evening out visiting,” stated Galveston Police Officer and NNO organizer Archie Chapman. If successful, the new date will be adopted permanently. Many neighborhoods in Galveston will be hosting a variety of special events such as block parties, cookouts, parades, visits from police, flashlight walks, contests, youth activities & anticrime rallies. “We’ve just begun to register neighborhoods. We’re hoping to have another fantastic turnout in the community,” Chapman noted. To register your neighborhood event please contact Officer Archie Chapman, Special Operations Group, (409) 765-3604. ### |
