Neighborhood Safety, Past Events

Tuesday, Oct. 5, 6:30-9:00pm, Gazebo at KF Park

It’s time to gather your neighbors and join us in our night out against crime.  The WBNA will be serving up free hotdogs, sausage wraps, sodas, chips, fruit and veggies and door prizes.

We’ll have distinguished guests on hand, State Representative Mark Strama, law enforcement from the Travis County Sheriff’s Office, ESD #2 Fire Department, and the Wells Branch MUD.  There’s really no telling who will show up.  Both children and adults will have the opportunity to visit with first responders, receive information on Neighborhood Watch and other programs available to residents, and tour the fire safety house and fire truck that ESD #2 will have on hand.  Come find out what’s going on in our community and visit with local law enforcement officers about what you can do to help reduce the opportunities for crimes to occur.
