National Night Out Set for Tonight

Tuesday evening, dozens of greater Rose Hill area residents will be locking their doors, turning on their porch lights, and spending some quality time outside with their neighbors.

It would be a typical evening in most of our neighborhoods if August 2 were not the 28th annual National Night Out.

National Night Out, sponsored by the National Association of Town Watch, is an organized evening where community and civic organizations, local police departments and residents take to the streets in a stand against violence and crime. Many groups order pizza or barbecue and discuss local issues, particularly pertaining to crime and crime prevention in their communities.

Here’s are the National Night Out gatherings in Rose Hill:

5700 Ridge View Drive, 7 - 9 p.m.

6416 Rose Hill Drive, 6 - 8 p.m.

5861-4 Woodfield Estates Drive, 7 - 8 p.m.

3800 Ivanhoe Lane, 7 - 9 p.m.
