The skies held out just long enough to make it a perfect summer night in downtown DC as the MVT CID, community partners, residential properties and restaurant retailers joined first responders and the public at Milian Park as part of National Night Out last month. Celebrated in communities across America, National Night Out is an annual community-building campaign to generate support for, and participation in, local anti-crime and emergency preparedness programs and to strengthen neighborhood spirit.
