Westview Splash 2014

Westview Splash Photos

The Westview Community Organization’s Special Events Committee organized another neighborhood outing, “Westview Splash,” to float down the Chattahoochee river with fellow neighbors. The trip started off proving to be a great team-building effort as everyone was trying to overcome rocks in the stream, followed by a relaxing float with dips into the cooling river water, and finally ended with pizza for the hungry rafters.

To see photos of the Westview Splash please view the photo gallery below or visit our Westview Facebook page.

National Night Out

National Night Out Photos

On one of the possibly most sweltering days of the year the Westview Community Organization held the annual National Night Out event on Rogers Avenue. Young and old came together to socialize on the street with police officers and city officials while munching on hot dogs and cooling down with drinks. An added bonus for the kids was games and school supplies!

HISTORY
National Night Out, ‘America’s Night Out Against Crime,’ was introduced by the National Association of Town Watch (NATW) in 1984 to prevent crime, drugs and violence in cities across America. That first year, 400 communities in 23 states participated in National Night Out. Nationwide, 2.5 million Americans took part in 1984. The 27th Annual National Night Out last August involved 37.0 million people in 15,110 communities from all 50 states, U.S. territories, Canadian cities, and military bases worldwide.

ABOUT NNO
National Night Out is designed to:

  • Heighten crime and drug prevention awareness;
  • Generate support for, and participation in, local anticrime programs;
  • Strengthen neighborhood spirit and police-community partnerships; and
  • Send a message to criminals letting them know that neighborhoods are organized and fighting back.
