Press release<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It is with deep regret that we must announce that the 2021 National Night Out event scheduled
for August 3, 2021 is being cancelled due to Covid-19 concerns. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Last year\u2019s event was postponed from its original date of August 4, 2020, and rescheduled to October 6, 2020. The event then had to be cancelled.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The National Night Out Committee had hopes that the risks associated with Covid-19 would be
mitigated by August. However, the reality is that it is unknown as to when large gatherings will
be safe. While we as a community have done an amazing job to control the infection rate, we
cannot guarantee that our event could be held in a manor to keep people safe.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This is very unfortunate as the event helps connect people in need with resources that can be life
changing. This at a time when those resources are needed more than ever. The National Night
Out committee is committed to bring back the event in the future and make it better than ever.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Any donations that were made to the event will be applied to next event unless they are requested
to be refunded. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The next event will be held on August 2, 2022 at Bullard Park.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
