Vandalia will hold its National Night Out on Aug. 4 from 6 to 8 p.m. at the Vandalia Sports Complex, a city official announced. The event is billed as an opportunity for police and residents to build relationships through family-focused activities.
The speaker said the program will include live music by a group identified as "5 band," a newly added car show, a hayride and a bike rodeo. "We're gonna give out bikes," the official said, noting organizers will raffle six bicycles and hand out free helmets to children to promote bicycle-safety participation. The announcement also listed public-safety demonstrations: canine and cruiser demonstrations, displays of fire trucks and EMS units, and a care flight landing at the complex. Organizers said there will be a dunk tank with "one special guest" who may be the chief of police.
