National Night Out Marlo Heights

For Marlo Heights first National Night Out there were about 30 to 35 neighbors that come out and got to know each other. About two were new to the neighborhood, about half live there for 2-5 year and a few have lived in that community for about 11-30years. We had a little table there with some food some of the residents brought out to share. While I was talk and getting to know some of the residents they told me that they were happy that we (UT students) helped out setting up the event. Even though all we did was making flyers (Spanish and English) and help pass them out. They were glad that we did that and sure need more excited about finally going to get to know their neighbors. I was able to talk to two woman for the neighbor who said " I can't wait for the next National Night Out. Is it going to be next month?" Those to two woman really joined visiting with their neighbors that they want us to have another one which was great to hear. To be honest I didn't know what to say them. But I think when me and my classmate members in the Marlo Height Project Team have to go to our first community meeting that would be are first question/suggest to the community leaders (having a block party/event at least once a month) so that that resident's bond can grow stronger together. :)
