National (Neighborhood) Night Out

Tonight (Tuesday) is Neighborhood Night Out. The Delaware Area Neighborhood Association is having their annual ice cream social at the Farmers Market beginning at 5:30.

[The] "National Night Out" (NNO) program [is] held on the first Tuesday each August, [and] has been extraordinarily successful in promoting involvement in crime and drug prevention activities, strengthening police-community relations, and encouraging neighborhood camaraderie as part of the fight for safer streets. Since 1984, "National Night Out-America's Night Out Against Crime" has grown to involve over 30 million people from more than 9,000 communities. -- http://www.nationaltownwatch.org/nno/index.html
