Downtown Turnaround celebrates National Night Out! 
We are going to kickoff our Project 365 and have an Ice Cream Social!
August 3rd, 7pm
 
National Night Out is a unique crime/drug prevention event designed to:
 
(1) Heighten crime and drug prevention awareness;
(2) Generate support for, and participation in, local anticrime efforts;
(3) Strengthen neighborhood spirit and police community partnerships; and
(4) send a message to criminals letting them know neighborhoods are organized and fighting back.
 
This year's event will be held on Tuesday, August 3rd from 7pm-9pm. 
We will have a visit from the town caravan too! 
Please turn your outside lights on
and join us for an evening of fun and ice cream at Urban Park.
