year. St. Paul has great participation each year. This year it will be
celebrated on August 7th. I encourage you to help St. Paul increase its
participation. If your block has an event then please attend and get to know
your neighbors, if your block has not had an event in the past, please consider
organizing one. National Night Out is a great community building tool were
you get to bring neighbors together to know one another, do a project, whatever
you want. The events don't have to be complicated. They can be an ice cream
social, or a potluck. The main point is neighbors knowing each other. The
advantage is you can get a permit to block your street for free that day.
Take advantage of the opportunity to get to know one another.
