NATIONAL NIGHT OUT, 
TUESDAY, AUGUST 1, 2017!!! 

National Night Out is 
an annual community-
building campaign 
that promotes police-
community partnerships 
and neighborhood 
camaraderie to make 
our neighborhoods safer, 
more caring places to 
live. National Night Out


enhances the relationshipbetween neighbors and law enforcement while bringing back a truesense of community.

Unlike previous years when the SMPD hosted this event inMemorial Park, we’ve found that other cities have been able to reach 
out to their communities more effectively by going to NeighborhoodWatch (NW) block parties or individual parties throughout theircities. It is our intention this year to visit the NW block parties orindividual parties. As we schedule the Department’s events forthe evening, we need to know who will be participating. If you arescheduling a block party, let us know and we’ll coordinate with thecity in providing barricades if necessary.

We will have representatives from the department stop by tosay hello, no presentations, just pass out a few goodies and answerquestions if you like. I’ve listed a few points to remember when yourespond.

“EGGS”-TRA-VA-GANZA IN THE PARK FOR 3RD AND 4TH OF JULY 


Sierra Madre Civic Club In Action A First Hand Account 

By Nancy Beckham 

Most of the town turned out for its two day celebration for our

country’s 241st birthday. 

On July 3rd a beer garden was created in Memorial Park

so residents and friends could greet each other, children could

enjoy the kids fun zone as well as stomp on bubble wrap, while

Groovy Lemon Pie played music to fill the air. However, the 

Sierra Madre Civic Club was hard at work selling their confetti

eggs for another year’s fun on the fourth! Given I saw confetti

everywhere I went today, the kids had loads of fun. Many

purchased eggs at Memorial park on Monday from 5-9ish, while

others waited to buy on the fourth of July at Sierra Vista Park

after the parade. All I know is the town is covered in confetti.

Good job kids !!!…..

On the right:

Carol Cerrina, Debbie Pock, Shirley Wolff, Susan Gallagher and

Sandy Siroganian.
