On Tuesday, August 1, 2017, Police Departments from the cities of Brookhaven, Dunwoody, Johns Creek and Sandy Springs will host the 34st Annual National Night Out (NNO) event. This community event will be held from 6:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. at Perimeter Mall, located at 4400 Ashford Dunwoody Road in Dunwoody.
Sponsored by the National Association of Town Watch, National Night Out is an annual community-building campaign that promotes police-community partnerships and neighborhood camaraderie to make our neighborhoods safer, better places to live.
This year, the four hosting Police Departments will have patrol cars, SWAT vehicles and other specialty vehicles on display. The Sandy Springs Fire Department and the DeKalb County Fire/Rescue Department will also have fire trucks and other pieces of equipment on display. Police Officers and Fire/Rescue personnel will be on hand to answer any questions related to vehicles, personnel or public safety operations.
In addition to public safety organizations, many local businesses and community groups will have display booths set up. Music and entertainment will be provided, along with free food and drinks donated by many local stores and members of the community.
