1. San Diego Lincoln Military Housing Community Wins
Coveted National Night Out Award for the Second
Consecutive Year
SAN DIEGO, CA--(Marketwired - Jan 6, 2015) - Since 1981, the National Association of Town Watch
(NATW) has partnered with communities across the nation to support crime prevention programs
like neighborhood watch, awareness training, and police partnership events. The NATW sponsors a
yearly event known as National Night Out (NNO), or -- "America's Night Out Against Crime." This
event currently draws millions of participants from all fifty states, US Territories, Canadian cities,
and US military bases worldwide, and aims to visibly demonstrate that crime prevention is at the
forefront of residents' minds.
Annually, on the first Tuesday in August, National Night Out participants leave their porch lights on
all night. Block parties and community events (often involving the support of local law enforcement
agencies) serve notice to criminals that residents are highly aware of crime and other community
issues. To recognize Chula Vista California real estate communities that go above and beyond during
the NNO, the NATW awards a select group with a "National Night Out" award to showcase the
dedication and support for resident safety.
Lincoln Military Housing strongly supports "America's Night Out Against Crime"
Lincoln Military Housing (LMH) in San Diego, CA, was one of just a handful of communities across
the nation that received a National Night Out award http://san.org/ from the NATW. This distinct
honor was bestowed on an LMH community that serves US service members and their families in
the San Diego area for the third year in a row. On August 5th, 2014, LMH residents gathered at the
Santo Ball field for fun, food and celebration at the 10th Annual National Night Out. This event is
designed to strengthen the community by encouraging neighborhoods to engage in stronger
relationships with each other and with their local law enforcement partners. They met with The
California National Guard, San Diego Police and Fire Department, and approximately 20 other safety
leaders and organizations. During the event, a few organizations presented material relating to
safety, crime, and drug prevention. There was also an anti-bullying area with positive community
organizations for kids to get involved in such as Cub Scouts, US Naval Sea Cadets and The Karate
Academy. Music, team building activities, and family games were included to make this a fun night
out for the entire family.
