Cypress Park neighbors send a message to criminals!
Residents join-in the 26th National Night Out |
Neighbors gather against crime
The Wasco St. Neighborhood Watch (NE Wasco St. from 172nd to 179th) celebrated their first National Night Out "block party" Friday, Aug. 7, 2009 from 6PM-9PM. Two watch members took the initiative to prepare a flier invitation and others members distributed it.
Great participation
The block party attracted 40 members of the neighborhood, some who had never met. Conversation was fun and lively, one student performed magic.
The neighborhood potluck consisted of wonderful dishes from all families including Russian and Philippine cuisine. Everyone commented on what a great time it was.
An annual event
Wasco St. Neighborhood Watch plans to host an annual National Night Out block party each year.
