The Taylorville National Night out is taking place this evening from 5-8 PM at the Christian County Fairgrounds.  The event is open to everyone regardless of wherever you are from and it’s family-friendly. There will be plenty of free food including burgers, hot dogs, pizza, and popcorn. 

The National Night Out is coordinated and put together by the Taylorville Police Department as a way to get the community together. There will be a raffle and dunk tank benefiting the Law Enforcement Torch Run for the Special Olympics.  There is plenty of opportunities for merchandise, a camper, a Harley, and many other things as well. 

There will be a bouncy house, an inflatable obstacle course, and inflatable ax throwing along with face painters. The evening will also consist of a K-9 demonstration at 6 PM and a drone demonstration afterward. For more information visit the Taylorville Police Department Facebook page.
