National Night Out is an annual community-building campaign that promotes first responder-community partnerships and neighborhood camaraderie to make Roanoke a safer, more caring place to live.
Join in the pre-party Plawk!
Let's gather at River’s Edge Park NORTH parking lot (208 Reserve Ave SW) and set out on a 45-minute stroll, pick up litter, and then head over to the celebration at the Fire Station for National Night Out! (Follow Roanoke Plawkers on Facebook and Instagram.)
We’re excited for South Roanoke, Southeast, and Old Southwest neighbors, our first responders, and our community partners to come together to strengthen and build relationships.
