The Social/Special Activities Committee invites all residents of Mark Subdivisions to our 1^st Annual National Night out Against Crime on Tuesday, August 3, 2010 from 6:30 PM to 8:30 PM. This is a block party and will be held on the neutral ground between N. Hardy and S. Hardy Street. 

Over 80% of our residents have returned since Hurricane Katrina, therefore, the need for additional crime prevention is imperative.  The purpose of the event is to:

• Heighten crime and drug prevention awareness in Mark Subdivision
• Generate support for and participation in, local anticrime programs
• Strengthen Mark Subdivision and other surrounding communities spirit and partnerships with the local police-community
• Send a message to criminals that Mark Subdivision is organized and fighting back
  
  

  Were you aware that lately we have experienced several home and vehicle break- ins? It is of the upmost importance that you know your neighbors, and can put a name with a face. 

                                                                                                                    

   

  WE CAN ONLY BE SUCCESSFUL IF WE WORK TOGETHER AS A COMMUNITY, SO COME OUT AND HELP US MAKE THIS A GREAT PLACE TO LIVE
