Credit Unions United Chapter Supports National Night Out

The Credit Unions United Chapter from Minot, ND participated in the National Night Out event held on August 1st in communities around the country.  The chapter had a booth at the Minot event, and gave away ice creams bars and coloring sheets for the kids. Pee Wee Penguin was also on hand to entertain the kids.

National Night Out is an annual community-building campaign that promotes police-community partnerships and neighborhood camaraderie to make neighborhoods safer and more caring places to live. National Night Out enhances the relationship between neighbors and law enforcement while bringing back a true sense of community. Furthermore, it provides a great opportunity to bring police and neighbors together under positive circumstances.

Millions of neighbors take part in National Night Out across thousands of communities from all fifty states, U.S. territories and military bases worldwide on the first Tuesday in August (Texas celebrates on the first Tuesday in October). Neighborhoods host block parties, festivals, parades, cookouts and various other community events with safety demonstrations, seminars, youth events, visits from emergency personnel, exhibits and much, much more.
