Block watch groups all around Lake Forest Park and Shoreline celebrated the annual Night Out Against Crime on Tuesday evening, August 3, by taking back the streets - for dinner.
The 185th and Burke block watches in the Echo Lake neighborhood of Shoreline celebrate together, under the leadership of Jeanne Monger and Bob Tanac.
Neighbors gathered for a leisurely potluck dinner set up in a neighbor's driveway, and ate at tables set up in the middle of the street.
Shoreline Fire visited with an engine and gave tours to the children. Pictured left to right are firefighters Gabe DeBay, Nate Bess, and Mark Foster.
Visiting politicians are a tradition at neighborhood gatherings. Pictured are State Representatives Ruth Kagi and Maralyn Chase.
Night Out saw the changing of the guard at this event, as long-time block watch captain Bob Tanac turned over the leadership to Kelley Fackler.
Residents who are interested in setting up a neighborhood block watch can contact the police department for information and assistance.
