Get Ready for Night to Unite 2012

Last year, seven neighborhoods in the Northfield area held gatherings. Each location that signed up to host a gathering was treated to tours of police and ambulance vehicles as well as a visit from a Northfield fire engine.

Northfield will continue its August tradition by participating in the third annual Night to Unite.

Residents are invited to host their own neighborhood gatherings on Aug. 7 as part of a nationwide effort to get to know your neighbors and emergency officials.
