FYI: H’vlle PD's National Night Out

Hendersonville Police Department will host its annual community engagement event; open to the public.
HPD's National Night Out will take place Tuesday, Oct. 3, from 4-7 p.m. in the Blue Ridge Mall parking lot. The police department hosts the free event with the goal of connecting with the very people it serves.
“Building trust in the community is a high priority for us,” Hendersonville Police Chief Blair Myhand said in a statement. “National Night Out is a great way for our officers and staff to get to know each other by providing a great evening of fun for the whole family.”
On Oct. 3, Hendersonville residents can enjoy free food in the form of hot dogs and Pelican's SnoBalls, along with fun activities like a donut-eating contest, police officer dunk tank, inflatable basketball, door breaching simulation, face painting and more.
The popular llamas of Ellaberry Farm will also join the fun!
Kids age 12 and under are encouraged to "dress like a hero," coming to the event in costume dressed like their favorite superhero, first responder or to pay homage to their very own personal hero.
During National Night Out, community members will also be able to interact with emergency equipment displays from the Hendersonville Police Department and Hendersonville Fire Department, as well as trucks from Hendersonville Public Works and Water & Sewer departments.
