(PLAINVIEW, N.Y.) - Nassau County Legislature Deputy Minority Leader Arnold W. Drucker (D – Plainview) is once again joining forces with the Mid Island Y JCC, the Nassau County Police Department’s Second Precinct and an array of community stakeholders to celebrate National Night Out at the Mid Island Y JCC from 6 to 8 p.m. on Tuesday, August 6.
Held in thousands of communities each year on the first Tuesday in August, National Night Out is an initiative that seeks to promote “police-community partnerships and neighborhood camaraderie to make our neighborhoods safer, more caring places to live.”
The event is scheduled to feature dozens of vendors, including the Nassau County Police Department’s Second Precinct and an array of local community partners in business, education, and healthcare. Family-friendly activities from National Night Out include giveaways from local businesses and community groups, refreshments, raffle prizes donated by local businesses, demonstrations, ice cream, popcorn and cotton candy, a bouncy castle, and much more.
“For the last 41 years, National Night Out events have been instrumental in building rapport between law enforcement agencies and the community members they work so tirelessly to serve and protect each and every day,” Deputy Minority Leader Drucker said. “Here in Nassau County, we have worked diligently to create what I believe is the finest police force in the nation, and I encourage everyone to join with us at the Mid Island Y JCC – either as a guest or a sponsor – for this wonderful community tradition.”
Anyone interested in becoming a vendor or a sponsor for this year’s National Night Out can contact Deputy Minority Leader Drucker’s office at 516-571-6216 or adrucker@nassaucountyny.gov for additional information.
