WHAT: National Night Out (NNO) Event (Rescheduled date!)

WHEN: Tuesday, August 21, 2018; 6PM-8PM

WHERE: Gilford Town Hall / Police Dept. Complex

The Gilford Police & Fire Departments will be co-hosting their second annual NNO event. Created in 1984, the NNO is a community-building campaign that promotes public safety-community partnerships and neighborhood camaraderie in order to assist in making neighborhoods safer, more caring places to live. NNO events help to build relationships between neighbors and public safety while providing a great opportunity to bring citizens and first-responders together in one location under positive circumstances. Today, NNO events bring together 38 million neighbors and public safety personnel in 16,000 communities across the nation.

For this year's NNO event, emergency vehicles will be on hand for show, fun activities will be organized, a K9 demonstration will take place, tours of the Police & Fire Departments will be conducted, and a cookout held.

GPD & GFD are encouraging residents to shut off televisions, put down electronic devices, lock doors, turn on outside lights, and join them for a night of fun, food, and festivities!!!
