Sector 3's National Night Out Against Crime - August 6th, 2007

Thanks go to Mike Visconte for the wonderful photos!

We drove through each of the sector's seven neighborhoods, and then reconvened at the Edgerton Community Recreation Center for free refreshments.

Once again, I was very busy painting kids' faces and arms, and I even enlisted my husband, Ralph, to make balloon animals for the children. He had never done them before, but read the instructions and did his best!

We stayed until each child had a balloon to take home and a painted face to show to their parents! We were so very busy, and worked without stops, that we didn't leave the parking lot until 9pm!  The kids were very appreciative of our efforts, making it all worth it.

I would've liked to see more parents accompanying the youngsters, but perhaps they'll be able to join us next time...
