I was pleased to join in Montgomery County’s annual “National Night Out” (NNO) celebration. I attended the Olney’s popular NNO parade and celebration, while members of my staff fanned out across the County to support the community’s efforts to promote public safety and crime awareness. In addition to Olney, we visited with neighbors in the Indian Spring neighborhood at the Indian Spring Terrace Recreation Center, the Lyttonsville-Rosemary Hills community at the Coffield Recreation Center, in South Four Corners at the Forest Glen-Dallas Avenue Neighborhood Park, in Northwood and North Four Corners at the Forest Knolls Pool, and in the Park Hills neighborhood in East Silver Spring. We were pleased to see County Executive Ike Leggett, Police Chief Tom Manger, State’s Attorney John McCarthy, and Congressman Chris Van Hollen visiting our communities as well.
National Night Out is an annual event sponsored by the National Association of Town Watch (NATW). It is designed to generate neighborhood support and participation in crime prevention efforts and to enhance police and community relations.
