Law enforcement vehicles, fire trucks and local nonprofits took to Key Largo Park and Founders Park in Islamorada for National Night Out on Aug. 2. Sirens blared and emergency lights flipped on as children hopped in the driver seat of sheriff’s vehicles. Florida Fish & Wildlife Conservation officers brought some wildlife creatures with them for the families to see. Events featured food, refreshments and an opportunity to meet sheriff’s deputies, FWC officers, Coast Guard members, firefighters and neighbors. The goal of National Night Out is to bring the community together to discuss how we can all make our neighborhoods cleaner, safer and more secure.
