Princeton Community Night Out Tomorrow, Aug. 4
The Princeton Recreation Department, Princeton Police Department and Princeton PBA # 130 will host the town’s annual Community Night Out celebration at the Community Park Pool on Tuesday, Aug. 4 from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m.
All Community Night Out activities are free of charge including pool admission, the dunk tank, the rock-climbing wall and other family-friendly activities. Additional activities will include group zumba, a hoola-hoop contest and more.
Princeton community organizations and agencies including the Princeton Recreation Commission, Corner House, the Princeton Fire Department, and the Princeton Human Services Commission will have display booths set up at the event.
The celebration is part of National Night Out, a crime and drug prevention event sponsored by the National Association of Town Watch. For the past 30 years, towns across the country have participated in the event that is designed to heighten crime and drug prevention awareness, encourage participation in local anti-crime programs, and strengthen neighborhood spirit and police-community partnerships.
