Law enforcement agencies will perform SWAT, K9, fire rescue, and aviation demonstrations and share crime prevention tips and ideas on how to build safer communities.
Event vendors offer free popcorn, refreshments, ice cream, and snow cones.
National Night Out Against Crime is a yearly community-building event celebrated all over the United States.
