2026 NATIONAL NIGHT OUT CANCELLED

2026 NATIONAL NIGHT OUT CANCELED

After careful consideration, the 2026 National Night Out event scheduled to take place on the Courthouse Green has been canceled due to the impending inclement weather.

The safety of our citizens, participating vendors, community partners, volunteers, and staff remains our highest priority. Many other jurisdictions throughout the region are also canceling or modifying their National Night Out events due to the anticipated weather conditions.

We understand that many people were looking forward to this event, and we sincerely appreciate everyone who dedicated their time and effort toward making it possible.

We encourage everyone to join us for our next community event, Faith in Blue, on October 25, 2026. There will be plenty of activities for the entire family, and we would love to see everyone come together for a wonderful day of fellowship and community engagement. Additional information about the Faith in Blue event will be shared as the date approaches.
