Vestavia Hills National Night Out

The Vestavia Hills Fire and Police departments invites the public to its second annual National Night Out from 6-8:30 p.m. The city’s first National Night Out earned the “Rookie of the Year” honor from the national event committee. Even more is planned for this year’s. Police and fire personnel, equipment and vehicles (including LifeSaver One Helicopter) will be on site.  Local vendors will provide food, fun, live music, product demonstrations and more. In connection to National Night Out is “Project 365,” a program in which public safety is challenged to launch an initiative that makes a positive impact on the community as a whole. Last year the departments launched “Shades of Vestavia,” an initiative to raise funds for tree replacement in areas damaged by the April 2011 tornadoes. This year VHPD and VHFD will launch “Operation OverWatch.” Full details about the project will be available at the event.
