Cobb Police National Night Out is Tuesday; Coffee With a Cop returns to East Cobb Wednesday

by

A couple of community-oriented events are coming up with Cobb Police this week, starting with National Night Out from 5-9 Tuesday at Jim Miller Park (2245 Callaway Road, Marietta). Here’s what will be going on: Cobb Police National Night Out

“This event is part of the continued effort to build and strengthen public safety personnel’s relationships with the community they serve. Admission is free and everyone is invited to enjoy an evening of food, fun and entertainment. There will be public safety demonstrations, 15 giant inflatable and water activities for children, food trucks and live music. The School of Rock will perform on the main stage all evening. Also, there will be balloon artists, face painters, jugglers and magicians. 

“National Night Out is an annual community-building campaign that promotes camaraderie to ensure our neighborhoods are safer, more caring places to live. National Night Out enhances the relationship between neighbors and law enforcement while bringing back a true sense of community. It also provides a great opportunity to bring police and neighbors together under positive circumstances.”

On Wednesday, the Cobb Police Coffee With a Cop sessions resume in East Cobb. This is a chance to meet with police officers and ask crime and public safety questions. That session will be from 6-8 p.m. at Zaxby’s at 2981 Delk Road.

Cobb Police Coffee with a Cop scheduled for Wednesday at Chick-fil-A Woodlawn Square

by

Last week we noted that Cobb Police were having a “coffee with a cop” session as part of its community policing efforts. On Wednesday, they’re inviting you to join them again to express your concerns about crime and public safety issues in East Cobb.Cobb Police, Coffee with a Cop

From 8-10 a.m., Officer Nathalie Jegg will be available at the Chick-fil-A at Woodlawn Square, 1201 Johnson Ferry Road. She’s the Cobb Police Precinct 4 community officer (all five precincts have such an officer).

Here’s how Cobb Police is explaining this initiative, which is an ongoing function of its new community affairs unit:

“Community policing and trust building is one of the most important aspects of community-based policing. We, as police, need to create the situations where those things can occur, but it is often difficult and we don’t always reach our intended audience with town hall meetings alone. Coffee with a Cop is the perfect answer to the question of how to better engage our community and show our officers in a true and human light. The Cobb County Police Department welcomes you to pull up a chair and talk.”

Here’s how Sgt. Jeff Tatroe, the Cobb Police community affairs unit leader, describes the concept:

Coffee with your Cop brings police officers and the community members they serve together–over coffee–to discuss issues and learn more about each other. In the time it takes to drink a cup of coffee, citizens and police officers can get to know each other and discover mutual goals for the communities they live in and serve. Officer Nathalie Jegg (Pct. 4 Community Affairs Officer) and other Cobb Police officers will be present to engage in discussion. The event will allow you to discuss matters that are most important to you and your neighborhood(s).
