National Night Out Tuesday Aug 3, 2021 from 5-7:30pm

National Night Out (NNO) is a yearly nationwide initiative that promotes police-community partnerships and neighbourhood camaraderie to make neighborhoods safer. We will have a casual meet and greet in the back park and 2 food trucks to enjoy.

So grab your neighbor and come to the back park, bring the kids, BYOB, bring a chair and socialize.

Simpsons BBQ, Classic smoked brisket, pulled pork and fall-off-the-bone ribs all make for a menu that won’t make you re-think barbecue, but will definitely raise your bar for it. Check the menu here:

And you may remember the popular popsicles from last year, Mom & Pops All Natural Frozen Pops will have a variety from their amazing selection. They are $3 each and they accept all types of payments on site.
