This Tuesday is National Night Out, an annual event that encourages relationships between law enforcement and the communities that they serve.
National Night Out events typically include food, games, and giveaways, but each community does things just a little bit differently.
National Night Out events will be held across the country, including a bunch right here in Lebanon County.
In the City of Lebanon, National Night Out will once again be held at the Salvation Army (1031 Guilford Street) from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. Expect to find food, games, vendors, and a bike giveaway.
