Visit with your neighbors on National Night Out, Tuesday, August 1, from 5:30 to 7:30 pm at Christ the Good Shepherd Lutheran Church, 4440 State St. in Salem. There are more than 75 block parties across the city each year, and our congregation received an invitation to this one.

There will be free bike helmets for kids (while they last), giveaways, calligraphy, community resources and partners, family fun, and food served until 7:00 pm. Bring your bike for the Bike Rodeo!
