Manassas Park

Manassas Park and its Police Department invite all community members to join the National Night Out 2024 event on Tuesday, August 6. The event promises an evening of fun, food, and community engagement from 5 to 8 p.m. at Signal Hill Park, 9300 Signal View Drive.

The event will also include free admission to the waterpark from 5 p.m. to 7:30 p.m., courtesy of Manassas Park Parks & Recreation. This makes it a perfect outing for families looking to enjoy a summer evening. Civic outreach programs will be part of the activities, providing valuable information and resources to the attendees.

Is your neighborhood participating in National Night Out (NNO)? Let us know- we would love to join you! Contact Sergeant Rivers with your neighborhood information and we will schedule officers to attend. https://bit.ly/3zZidZl

Prince William County 

Prince William police do not plan an event. A police spokesman said many communities plan respective National Night Out events that officers attend.

National Night Out, an annual community-building campaign, aims to enhance the relationship between neighbors and law enforcement, fostering a true sense of community while bringing police and neighbors together under positive circumstances. This year’s event in Manassas Park is set to feature free food, fun activities, and various displays from local, state, and federal law enforcement agencies.

Travel to French soil and join us for a night filled with two of the most beloved French traditions—no plane ticket required! ?

On January 25th, we invite you to experience the magic of Galette des Rois, a 700-year-old tradition celebrated across France throughout the entire month of January (and even beyond!). This sweet, almond-filled puff pastry topped with a golden crown isn’t just a treat—it’s a celebration! The lucky person who finds the fève (a porcelain charm hidden in one of the slices) becomes the King or Queen for the Day, and don’t worry—there will be plenty of royalty to go around! ??

But that’s not all! In France, Les Voeux (New Year’s wishes) continue throughout January, often accompanied by Champagne and good cheer. We’re bringing that festive spirit to you, with a lively evening packed with French food, wine, and music.

What’s in store:
