National Night Out:  Music, Sno-Cones, Fun

NFCCA welcomed McGruff the crime dog and the police motorcade to our 2012 National Night Out event held at Forest Knolls Pool in August.  Thanks to Walter Medrano, we had plenty of sno-cones to keep us cool.

The Fo-Dads (left) provided musical entertainment while neighbors ate, talked, and relaxed around the pool.  Police officers handed out glow necklaces to the kids (below).  Officer Joy Patil — with McGruff the Crime Dog — showed up, too (above).

Thanks to Jim Zepp for organizing the event, and thanks to all the volunteers who helped out with set-up, serving and take down:  Linda Perlman, Judith Vann, Sondra Katz, Carolyn Van Dyck, Alison Petersen (and daughter).   ■
