GALLOWAY TOWNSHIP, NJ — National Night Out is upon us. Galloway Township's annual celebration will take place on Tuesday, Aug. 1, 2017, at the municipal complex, 5:30 p.m.-8:30 p.m. The complex is located at 300 East Jimmie Leeds Road.

The Whiskey Tango Fox Trot Band will perform. Other activities will include demonstrations and vendor booths from over 50 different participants including police, fire, EMS, SWAT, multiple helicopters on location and a live demonstration by Forest Fire with a helicopter water drop from Patriot Lake.

The evening is topped off with a bicycle rodeo where children will get a brand new free bicycle helmet for participating, crafts, child safety seat inspection and installation guidance, a police K9 demonstration, firefighting, games, food, amazing raffle prizes and much more.

National Night Out is an initiative in which people in towns across the country gather at their homes, on their streets and at their local community centers in recognition of their support of the community.

Local state and federal officials from 15,728 communities from all 50 states, U.S. territories and military bases worldwide joined forces to celebrate the 33rd annual National Night Out (NNO) – a community crime and safety event sponsored by the National Association of Town Watch, ADT, Nextdoor.com, Association and Fun Flicks. Throughout the nation, along with the traditional ‘lights on’ and front porch vigils, there were tens of thousands of block parties, cookouts, and parades.
