Hillsborough Township Police to Host Second Annual National Night Out on Tuesday, August 6th

The Hillsborough Police Department is hosting the Township’s second annual National Night Out on August from 6 pm to 8 pm at Mountain View Park.

“National Night Out is a special opportunity for Hillsborough families to meet and engage with our local police and participate in some fun events in Hillsborough Township,” said Mayor Robert Britting.

National Night Out is a national initiative with municipalities from across the U.S. and Canada participating. It’s free and open to all. Attendees will witness live displays by Police and Emergency Services, including K9, motorcycle, and fire company demonstrations.

“We have a great night of fun and games planned, “ stated Police Chief Mike McMahon. “We can’t think of a better way for Hillsborough residents to meet and form positive relationships with the local police.”

Attendees at National Night Out can also participate in kickball with the cops and a dunk tank while taking home prizes and souvenirs. The event also offers an opportunity to chat with local police officers and learn more about what it takes to protect the community.
