After attending the swimming awards on Tuesday, it was National Night Out. This is where everyone in your neighborhood gets together to PARTY! No just kidding. Everyone gets together to get to know each other, talk about the neighborhood and fight crime. This year there was about 50 of us. There is a lot of food, fun and booze! The police department came out with McGruff(sp?) and handed out glow sticks. The fire department came out and let the kids do everything to the fire truck except drive it! It's part of neighborhood watch and we have been doing it for 4 years. I can't imagine people who don't even know their neighbors names. Some of these people we see everyday! Some we only talk to at this annual event. If your neighborhood doesn't have one, next year you should organize one. It is this time of year every year and it is national. It's a lot of fun!!!
