NUECES COUNTY, Texas — When first responders like the police, firefighters, or EMS pull up in your neighborhood, it's usually about some serious business. But tomorrow night across the country, the only business your local first responders will worry about is having some serious fun!
National Night Out is a national community-building campaign that hopes to build strong, positive relationships between communities and their local first responders.
