Denison PD: National Night Out

Forest Park Denison, TX

Last year’s event was a huge success as many new neighborhoods came on board and community participation in the festivities increased from previous years – the Denison Police Department is hoping this year will be even bigger as we celebrate our 150th birthday! This national event promotes neighborhood camaraderie by bringing neighbors together to effectively identify and fight crime while building relationships with one another and the Denison Police Department. This is an excellent opportunity to get to know your neighbors, support local businesses, and engage in a community-wide, family friendly event.
