The deadline for registering a Aug. 4th National Night Out party for your block has been extended to Monday. You can throw a block party without registering and without closing your street but it’s more fun with firetrucks (from registering) and being able to play in the street (from getting street closure permission from the city).

If you’d rather join the people’s block party, the Chill n Grill on the Hill is a large everyone-invited party planned for Tuesday night.
