The Woodlands Township Neighborhood Watch wins National Award
The Woodlands Township earned First Place in Category #2 for Populations 100,000 to 300,000 from The National Association of Town Watch for its 2021 National Night Out Campaign.
Since 1991, The Woodlands Township and predecessors has garnered the #1 ranking in nine different years.
The campaign, produced by The Woodlands Neighborhood Services program, earned top honors through its creative programming and participation of Township residents and public safety agencies.
“This is a great honor and we’re proud to be #1 in the nation again,” said Township Chairman Gordy Bunch. “Neighbors getting to know neighbors is critical to effective public safety and our National Night Out program is best in the nation. We appreciate all the work by our employees, our public safety partners, our residents and our businesses who produced and participated in numerous National Night Out events.”
The Woodlands Township Neighborhood Watch team supports National Night Out by helping residents to host National Night Out parties, hosting the Community Safety Expo and a variety of public safety open houses, along with providing ongoing resources about safety for the community.
