National Night Out enhances the relationship between neighbors and law enforcement while bringing back a true sense of community. Furthermore, it provides a great opportunity to bring police and neighbors together under positive circumstances. MADD CT would like to thank Groton Police Department for inviting our organization to their National Night Out. Celebrated on the first Tuesday in August, neighborhoods host block parties, festivals, parades, cookouts and various other community events with safety demonstrations, seminars, youth events, visits from emergency personnel, exhibits and much, much more.<\/h3>\n<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/madd.org\/connecticut\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/17\/2018\/08\/IMG_0389-381x285-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"381\" height=\"285\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2514\" srcset=\"https:\/\/madd.org\/connecticut\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/17\/2018\/08\/IMG_0389-381x285-1.jpg 381w, https:\/\/madd.org\/connecticut\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/17\/2018\/08\/IMG_0389-381x285-1-300x224.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 381px) 100vw, 381px\" \/>\n\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/madd.org\/connecticut\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/17\/2018\/08\/IMG_0392-381x285-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"381\" height=\"285\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2515\" srcset=\"https:\/\/madd.org\/connecticut\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/17\/2018\/08\/IMG_0392-381x285-1.jpg 381w, https:\/\/madd.org\/connecticut\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/17\/2018\/08\/IMG_0392-381x285-1-300x224.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 381px) 100vw, 381px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>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.
