Bella Vista police host Night Out

BELLA VISTA — Members of the Police Department will welcome the public to the annual National Night Out, from 5 to 8 p.m. Tuesday at Kingsdale Pavilion.

The police officers will have free food, music, a drunken driving simulator, an interesting evidence table and more, according to officials.

Kids will have the opportunity to explore a police car — lights, sirens and all — and the Animal Control truck. A misting tent will be provided by the Kendrick Fincher Hydration Foundation.

There will be a GPP Cycling bike rodeo, so officials encourage people to bring their bicycles.

Pro bike mechanics will be available for safety checks and helmet fits, for kids and adults. A bike skills obstacle course will also be available.

New this year, the Bella Vista Property Owners Association will allow admission to the Kingsdale Pool from 5 to 8 p.m. for $1.

For more information, call the Police Department at (479) 855-3771.
