Knowing the community is easier for both the responder and the community member when they already know each other.

Allowing responders and the community members to become familiar with one another, assists in avoiding potential issues which may arise which could have life altering or life threatening consequences.

 

Safety is a vital component to the purpose of emergency responders! What may seem insignificant in the eyes of the community, the responder takes very seriously for their own safety and the safety of others.

 

This is a national event with agencies participating in towns and cities across the country. Please join us as we build relationships to increase safety in our community. The event in Nederland will begin with activities related to the duties of first responders. At 7 p.m. a Northern Colorado Medevac Chopper is scheduled to land at Guercio Field. Food will be served, which includes hotdogs, chips, cookies and drinks.

 

National Night Out is an annual community-building campaign that promotes police-community partnerships and neighborhood camaraderie to make our neighborhoods safer, better places to live. National Night Out enhances the relationship between neighbors, law enforcement and first responders, and provides a great opportunity to bring law enforcement and neighbors together under positive circumstances.
