We will be addressing the National Night Out theme: “Neighbors Helping Neighbors”

Hallandale Beach Crime Watch will contribute to “PROJECT 365” through the assistance and support of the Police Department’s S.W.A.T team a mock crime scene demonstration contest where participating residents will be asked to identify and describe as accurately as possible the events of the scene. The top three winncers who best describe the scene with the sharpest observation skills will be awarded prizes. Police Department detectives will act as Judges.
