National Night Out Creates Community Connections
In October, Georgetown police officers and other law enforcement personnel hosted 57 block parties across the city with the goal of building community connections and supporting a safer Georgetown. “During this event, there are always numerous opportunities to establish, build, and strengthen partnerships not only with neighbors, but also with public safety personnel and other city employees or officials,” Lieutenant Matthew Robey says.
Residents of all ages enjoyed activities and meet-and-greets with local law enforcement officers as well as elected officials, firefighters, EMS technicians, and other city employees.
Lieutenant Robey encourages residents to be on the lookout for next year’s National Night Out – slated for August 2025 – and to check Georgetown PD’s Facebook page for event updates.
