BREVARD COUNTY • MELBOURNE, FLORIDA – A National Night Out and Neighborhood Unity Day will be held in Melbourne today.

The event is planned for Tuesday afternoon at Lipscomb Park, 3416 Monroe Street in Melbourne and is part of an effort to reduce crime in the area.

The National Night Out and Neighborhood Unity Day is being staged by the Powell Subdivision Neighborhood and is supported by the Melbourne Police Department.

It is scheduled to be run from 3 to 7 p.m. and will include vendors and games.

Across America, National Night Out events are designed to heighten crime and drug prevention awareness, generate support for and participation in local anti-crime efforts, strengthen neighborhood spirit and police/community partnerships and to send a message to criminals by letting them know neighborhoods are organized and fighting back.
