In an effort to keep our community safe from crime and drugs, GCASA and the City of Batavia Police Department will host the sixth annual National Night Out event at Austin Park in Batavia.
The event is 5:30 to 8:30 p.m. on Tuesday, Aug. 3 with a family friendly movie shown afterward.
National Night Out is a collaborative effort to promote neighborhood spirit and police-community partnerships.
This year’s event will feature various agencies in the community such as the City and County Youth bureaus, Cornell Cooperative Extension, the Genesee County Sheriff’s Office, NYS Troopers, Mercy EMS, Genesee County Emergency Management, City of Batavia Fire Department, Care-A-Van Ministries, Genesee County YMCA, GCASA’s SafeHomes Program and the Drug-Free Marshals.
There is no cost to attend. Concessions will be available at a minimum cost.
There will also be a featured performance by singer Lisa Barrett and various activities for kids. Prizes will be given away around 8:15 p.m. with a free movie sponsored by Genesee County Reality Check starting at dusk.
National Night Out is a smoke-free family event. Come join us for some fun! For more information about National Night Out contact Kevin Keenan at 815-1875 or Rich Schauf at 345-6312.
