Re: National Night Out 2010 Organizational Meeting

At the March city-wide Neighborhood Watch Block Captains’ meeting, citizens were invited to be part of the planning team for the 4th annual Oshkosh National Night Out event scheduled for Tuesday, August 3, 2010 at South Park. I am extending a special invitation to citizens living in the South Park area to be part of the planning team.

So we can review past events, plans to date and move forward with the planning for the 2010 event, an organizational meeting has been scheduled for:

Tuesday, April 13, 2010 at 6:00pm
Oshkosh Police Department Erickson Community Room
420 Jackson Street

Please RSVP to me at 236 5714 or dwilner@ci.oshkosh.wi.us

Oshkosh will join over 14,000 other communities around North America in hosting a National Night Out even on August 3. The goals of National Night Out are:

• To involve citizens in building a safe community by providing an opportunity to learn more about local fire and law enforcement;

• To increase crime prevention awareness;

• To celebrate neighborhoods and community, and

• To provide a safe, alcohol-free event to the community

Last year the event attracted over 1,200 community members of all ages. You can view the video from last year’s event at our website http://www.oshkoshpd.com/ I look forward to working with you and hope you can join us on April 13 to kick-off our planning.
