National Night Out is August 5th, 2014

National Night Out is just around the corner, so mark your busy calendars to bring the family down to Veterans' Memorial Park for a fantabulous evening outside on Tuesday, August 5th from 6-9pm!

The Boulder City Police Department hosts National Night Out for our city and it's a great time with a ton of different things to do.

THIS year is a bit special, too - as word on the street is that the City of Boulder City will be dedicating one of the softball fields in memory of Officer Dan Leach and all donations collected and t-shirt sales made will be donated to the Dan Leach Memorial Fund (website here and designed by yours truly).

Here are some of the items on the event agenda: The annual “Battle of the Badges” softball game between the Boulder City Police and Boulder City Fire Departments, games, a rock climbing wall, and waterslide for all of the kids.  Complimentary food and drinks provided by Albertsons.

Guests can meet members of several community services, including:

• Boulder City Police Department


• Boulder City Fire Department


• National Park Service


• Hoover Dam Police


• Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department


• Metro SWAT


• Nevada Highway Patrol


• ATF


• Division of Forestry


• Mercy Air

Guests will also enjoy K9 demonstrations by National Park Service, Division of Forestry and ATF and can enter to win an Xbox One gaming console. Yowsa -- now THAT'S a party!

National Night Out is a nationwide effort to heighten crime prevention awareness, generate support for local anti-crime programs and strengthens neighborhood spirit and police-community partnerships - so plan on swinging by - it's a really fun time.
