Slideshow: National Night Out...Were You There?

"When residents on a block know each other, the neighborhood and the community is safer and stronger."

Although the goal of National Night Out is to raise public safety awareness in communities, residents, businesses and public safety officials in Belmont took the annual event to a new level Tuesday night.

From sidewalk chalk contests and barbeque dinners to home safety demonstrations and tours of the police mobile command unit, the folks in Belmont demonstrated their community spirit and their commitment to forming a strong partnership with police, fire and city departments.
