“Join us next week for a family-friendly event featuring community building activities such as police officer meet and greets, tours of emergency vehicles, a ‘Cops vs. Kids’ kickball game, Cornhole with Cops, a game truck, laser tag, refreshments, a DJ, inflatables, K-9 demonstrations, face painting, music, safety information booths, and so much more!” police said in a post on the Bordentown Township Facebook page.

Since 1984, National Night Out has been held on the first Tuesday in August. It is intended to forge a bond between local police and the residents they serve.

On Aug. 1, police warned of a scam regarding National Night Out. The police department had been made aware of a scammer attempting to solicit funds on the township’s National Night Out event page.

“We would like to clarify that this is a free event, however table registration for this year’s event is currently closed and any inquiries regarding the event can be made to Lt. [Frank] Nucera at fnucera3@bordentowntownshippd.org or (609) 298-4300 ext. 2134.”
