National Night Out follow-up events in October focus on safety

By  | 

National Night Out follow-up events provide opportunities for Township residents to personally thank the safety personnel who keep our community safe and to meet each other. When residents participate in National Night Out events, it accomplishes one of the first steps in crime prevention: “neighbor knowing neighbor.” The Woodlands Township Neighborhood Watch invites all residents to enjoy the following events.

Safe Children Greater Houston Car Seat Check
Certified technicians will be available to inspect the installation of car seats, October 1, 2016, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the YMCA, located at 6464 Creekside Forest Drive. Please bring children’s car seats, the vehicle that the car seat is placed in and the vehicle owner’s manual.

Community Safety Expo at Rob Fleming Aquatics Center
The expo offers a day of food, fun and public safety demonstrations for the entire community. Residents can meet public safety personnel, see equipment, enter mobile command units of the Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office and Homeland Security, watch law enforcement K-9 demonstrations and much more at this free event.

Children can enjoy face painting, a bounce house, crafts and hanging out with McGruff the Crime Dog. New this year, children of all ages are invited to vote for their favorite display at the expo. The display with the most votes will receive the Kid’s Choice Award for Best Display. The Community Safety Expo will be held October 1, 2016, from noon to 3 p.m. at Rob Fleming Aquatics Center, located at 6535 Creekside Forest Drive.

Since 1990, The Woodlands Township Neighborhood Watch has brought residents and the public safety agencies that serve The Woodlands Township together under positive circumstances. National Night Out is an annual community-building campaign that promotes police-community partnerships and neighborhood camaraderie to make neighborhoods safer.
