HURON – Is tossing a pie in the face of a cop on your bucket list?
If so, answering a trivia question about 911 is your ticket to fulfill that goal, and without any repercussions.
It’s one of many activities going on at this year’s National Night Out event in Campbell Park – set for 5 to 8 p.m. Tuesday in Campbell Park.
“It’s a fun night for everybody to come out to the park,” said Capt. Mark Johnson, who is once again spearheading it. “Plan on being there for a couple of hours, take in some entertainment, grab some food and visit the different groups that are out there.”
The first 200 kids will get to chomp on free hotdogs, courtesy of the First Presbyterian Church.
At 6 p.m., a donut-eating contest will get under way.
“Everybody’s welcome to participate in that. They just have to sign up with the police department,” Johnson said. Sign up can be done that evening at the park.
Nordby Center for Recreation will have a Zumba demonstration at 6:30 p.m. and Detective Derek Layher and “Cody” will have a K-9 demonstration at 7 p.m.
