 Orlando
Mayor Dyer Celebrates the 27th Annual National Night Out
| WHAT: |
Orlando Mayor Buddy Dyer, District 6 City
Commissioner Samuel B. Ings and Police Chief Val Demings
will join with hundreds of families and residents at the
MetroWest Master Association for the 27th Annual National
Night Out on Tuesday, August 3, 2010. The event will also
include an announcement about a new public-private
partnership aimed at increasing public safety in the
MetroWest Master Association neighborhood.
National Night Out (NNO) is an annual crime awareness and
prevention event sponsored by the National Association of
Town Watch (NATW) and the Orlando Police Department (OPD) on
the second Tuesday of every August. NNO 2009 involved more
than 36 million people in 14,625 communities from all 50
states, U.S. territories, Canadian cities, and military
bases worldwide. National Night Out 2010 is expected to be
the largest ever.
Last year, Orlando came in third place nationally for the
number of neighborhood groups and residents participating in
the event. This year on Tuesday, August 3, Neighborhood
Watch groups around the City will hold rallies within their
neighborhoods to increase program awareness. To date, more
than 10,000 Orlando citizens are already registered for NNO
2010 including neighborhoods, churches and apartment
complexes.
