Community turns out for National Night Out On Tuesday, Aug. 7, the Villa Park Police Department hosted its annual National Night Out celebration at the Iowa Community Center and all Villa Park residents were invited. Thousands of communities nation-
wide participated in the “35th Annual National Night Out” crime and drug prevention event. Sponsored by the National Association of Town Watch (NATW) and co-sponsored locally by the Village of Villa Park, National
Night Out involves people from more than 16,000 communities from all 50 states, U.S. territories, Canadian cities and military bases around the world. In all, more than 37 million people were expected to participate.
The event began with face painting, Villa Park Police and Fire Department equipment on display, activities with Villa Park Target, snacks provided by Mission BBQ, a DJ, and much more. The Villa Park Police Department also
served free snow cones. National Night Out, “America’s Night Out Against Crime,” aims to send a message to criminals that neighborhoods are organized and fighting back.
