Taylorville’s National Night Out was a huge success as during the three hour event estimates at nearly 1000 people showed up for food, friendship, and fun. Taylorville Police Officer and coordinator Kirsten Bolinger talked about the event and what it meant to her.

Officer Bolinger says that it was a huge hit among people that were there, who got to see a K-9 demonstration and a drone demonstration.

There was also a raffle with proceeds that went to the Special Olympic Torch Run.

The Taylorville Police Department thanked the many agencies that helped put on a fantastic National Night Out at the Christian County Fairgrounds.
