National Night Out - Tuesday, August 2nd!

NATIONAL NIGHT OUT—TUESDAY, AUGUST 2ND

Boulevard Lane is celebrating National Night Out (NNO) in our community; this will be the fourth year doing so. National Night Out is an annual community-building campaign that promotes police-community partnerships and neighborhood camaraderie to make our neighborhoods a safer, better place to live. Block parties, cookouts, parades, visits from emergency personnel, rallies and marches, exhibits, youth events, safety demonstrations and seminars are examples of events that are hosted across the nation in an effort to heighten awareness and enhance community relations. Turnout for this event has grown every year and demonstrates that it is a huge success in our neighborhood!

NNO is celebrated on the first Tuesday of August every year in a variety of ways. For our NNO event, we will grill hot dogs and have salads, chips, and dessert. You are welcome to bring whatever you’d like. We are in the process of booking special guests to attend our NNO such as our local FIRE DEPARTMENT, SHERIFF and even GUARDIAN ONE!



Come out, have fun, and meet your neighbors!


LOCATION: At or near the corner of SE 190th Place & 127th PL SE

Our street barbecue event last year was a huge success—approximately 100 people showedup to support the cause!

Due to the success of last year’s event, the BLCA Board chose to host a street barbeque again this year! National Night Out is celebrated on the second Tuesday of August every year in a variety of ways. For our NNO event, we will be grilling hot dogs having chips and some salads and even some dessert. Feel free to bring anything you want and come join the fun.

We are in the process of booking some special guests like our local Fire Department, Sheriff and even Guardian One. We hope to see even MORE of you attend our National Night Out event thisyear! If you have questions please reach out to me via email or phone.

What a great National Night Out this year, thanks for all who attended!!

This year we met new neighbors, had special guests like Renton Fire Department, King County Sheriff and the coolest of the evening was the fly over from Guardian One helicopter!!!!

Everyone was able to look at the fire trucks, aid car, and sheriff cars.  The Fire Dept. hooked up the hose to the hydrant and let anyone turn the hose on and knock over a cone in the street, so much fun!

Deanne and Jay, Thanks for opening up your house for the party and Rob thanks for manning the grill!!!
Thanks to all who came and made this great!!! I am ready to start planning for next year!!!

National Night Out in Boulevard Lane!

Boulevard Lane residents participating in National Night Out.

This year Boulevard Lane celebrated National Night Out in our community, our first time doing so.  I think we are all in agreement that it was a huge success! 

National Night Out is celebrated on the second Tuesday of August.  It includes such events as block parties, cookouts, parades, visits from emergency personnel, rallies and marches, exhibits, youth events, safety demonstrations and seminars, in effort to heighten awareness and enhance community relations.  We chose to have a street barbeque this year!

We estimate approximately 100 people showed up to support the cause, get to know their neighbors in the community, and enjoy hot dogs from the grill.  In fact, we nearly ran out of hot dogs and had to request an emergency run to the store from Rich Upton!

We wish to extend a big Thank You to all who attended.  We also would like to extend a special Thank You to the Hilburns for making their yard and grill available, and for Jay Hilburn and our president Rob North for grilling those hot dogs just riiiiiight!

Finally, we should all extend a HUGE thank you to Andrea Upton, our VP - Community Development for organizing this event.  Awesome job Andrea!

We hope to see even MORE of you next year!
