Marysville area residents can take part in the 27th annual National Night Out Against Crime at the Tulalip Amphitheatre on Tuesday, August 3, from 6 to 8 p.m. The public is invited to dine and meet with their local law enforcement and emergency service organizations, receive an inside look at modern efforts in law enforcement and public safety, and to discuss community concerns.
Events are also planned in Arlington, both at City Hall, 238 N. Olympic Avenue, and at Arlington Fire Station #48, located at 18824 Smokey Point Blvd. in west Arlington. McGruff the Crime Dog and one of the city’s drug detection dogs, K-9 Officer Baylee and her handler, Officer Davis, will make appearances at both locations.
"Seeing the community join together to take a stand against crime is a beautiful thing" said Tulalip chairman Mel Sheldon. "At the end of the night, everyone will be able to go home feeling safer, knowing how hard law enforcement is working for them."
The National Night Out is a time when families can share a meal with officers, firemen and other public servants, talk about the community and work together to find solutions. 2010 National Night Out will take place in over 15,000 communities worldwide this month.
"The greatest thing about this event is that everyone comes together with the same goal - fighting against crime" said Tulalip police chief Jay Goss.
Those in attendance will also get the opportunity to see how technology and equipment used by law enforcement agencies contributes to lowering crime. The public sees first hand how in-car recording systems work and will see the actual recordings of events as they occurred to officers in real time.
Thanks to a recent partnership between the Marysville Police Department, Snohomish County Sheriffs, Marysville Firefighters and the Tulalip Police Department, the 27th Annual National Night Out will be hosted at the Tulalip Amphitheatre for the second year in a row. The Tulalip Police Department has been a part of the National Night out since 2006.
National Night Out provides hands-on communication between those serving and being served in the communities. The event also serves to heighten crime prevention awareness, generate support for local anti-crime programs, strengthen neighborhood spirit and police-community partnerships, and send a message to criminals that neighborhoods are organized and fighting back.
Since its inception in 1984, the National Night Out has been a huge success with record-breaking participation last year. In 2009 the National Night Out involved over 36 million people in 14,625 communities from all 50 states, U.S. territories, Canadian cities, and military bases worldwide.
