National Night Out - Tuesday, August 4th

Boulevard Lane is celebrating National Night Out (NNO) in our community; this will be the third 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.

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.

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!
