The partnership between law enforcement agencies and the communities they serve has been vital in reducing crime levels. For law enforcement to be truly effective, they require the active support and engagement of citizens. This underscores the significance of events such as National Night Out (NNO), an annual tradition that unites community members and law enforcement to foster trust and promote a safer environment for all.
WHAT: National Night Out
WHO: Cobb County Public Safety
WHEN: Tuesday, August 6, 2024, from 6:00 PM – 9:00 PM
WHERE: Jim R. Miller Park (2245 Callaway Road, Marietta, GA 30008)
National Night Out is more than just an evening of festivities; it’s an impactful initiative that began in 1984, spearheaded by the National Association of Town Watch (NATW). Celebrated across all states, NNO promotes police-community partnerships and neighborhood camaraderie, making our communities safer and more caring.
The event offers activities for all ages, including live music, face painting, and a kid-friendly zone with games and inflatables. Public safety demonstrations from our K-9 unit, SWAT team, and fire department will be featured, and officers will be available to answer questions, share safety tips, and engage with the community.
Attendees can also meet local organization representatives, learn about crime prevention, and explore volunteer opportunities. Food vendors will offer local fare, making it a great night out for families.
We invite all Cobb County residents to join us in this effort to build stronger, safer communities.
Your participation is essential in creating a supportive environment where everyone feels secure.
