An Evening Out with National Night Out!

An Evening Out with National Night Out!

The Mid-Peninsula Water District (MPWD) is proud to have been a part of the City of Belmont's National Night Out on Tuesday, August 6, which was held in neighborhoods throughout Belmont. National Night Out (NNO) is an annual, nation-wide event that promotes police-community partnerships and neighborhood camaraderie. This year marks 41 years of partnering neighbors with law enforcement across the nation with 17,000 communities and 38 million neighbors now participating in this unique event.

For this year's local event, Belmont residents showed up in force for an evening of fun, food, and connection. Our hosts – Belmont Police Department, San Mateo Consolidated Fire, Belmont City staff, and the City Council – were joined by the MPWD, Rethink Waste, Recology, and others to connect with neighbors and enjoy an evening with the community. Kids and adults of all ages interacted with police officers, a special guest from the K9 Unit, the Community Emergency Response Team, and Public Works. Plenty of delicious food and take-home goodies were also available.

Several MPWD staff members were on hand at the MPWD booth to engage with neighbors, answer questions about the water district, provide water conservation literature and take-home goodies – such as the popular 3-gallon water catcher buckets – and show off MPWD's very own water distribution system model.
