The National Night Out™ program promotes neighborhood alliances to strengthen our communities and preserve the quality of life in East Texas. Through National Night Out™, we can strengthen our communities by helping to educate our families, friends and neighbors on crime prevention. The National Night Out™ program helps local governmental agencies inform residents that communities are safer when neighbors work together. Getting to know your neighbors is an important step in guaranteeing safety in your communities, so Gun Barrel City will host a BLOCK PARTY this year at the Pavilion. Everyone is invited to attend and we are encouraging our POA's to host booths so neighbors are meeting neighbors.
