Join Us for National Night Out on Tuesday Aug. 5!
The West Madison Good Neighbor Project (launched in 2021) is hosting our third annual National Night Out Picnic at Westmorland Park on Tuesday, August 5th in conjunction with the Madison Police Department. Please join us for free food, fun, lawn games, live music by the Mad City Ukes (ukulele band), and casual conversation! Hang with neighbors and get to know some of the police officers who work in our neighborhood. Ask any questions about policing, crime trends, neighborhood safety, or whatever is on your mind.
Kids and adults alike enjoy seeing the inside of a police squad, watching the capabilities of a police drone, or meeting a police horse or K9 (as resources allow).
Millions of neighbors take part in National Night Out (NNO) events across the country each year during the first week of August. Started in the 1980s, the purpose of National Night Out events is to promote and strengthen police-community partnerships and neighborhood camaraderie, which make our neighborhoods safer, more caring places to live.
We are grateful for the Midvale Heights Community Association and the Westmorland Neighborhood Association for sponsoring this event.
Tuesday, August 5th
5:00-7:00 pm
Westmorland Park
4114 Tokay Blvd.
Free Taco/Nacho Bar (while supplies last).

Hope to see you there!
