On August 2nd, National night out or night to unite was in full effect as my royal girls and I went from house to house conversing and sharing snacks with everyone present. It was an amazing way to get the community together and be able to meet so many people from the community that we may not have met before and reconnect with people that we did know, like my first grade teacher! This was also a time fire the policemen and firefighters to come out and give everyone information about different situations and what to do if it happens. We even got to try on a fireman’s uniform, it was so heavy! I am so very glad I got to be apart of night to unite because it has taught me more about my community and I was able to learn more about national night out!
