Building safety, community through block parties
The safest communities in the world are where people know each other, care about each other and look out for one another.
And what better way to foster that sense of community than hosting a block party.
Be it a simple gathering in a backyard or park, to a full-blown cordoned off street to gather and mingle, the City of North Battleford is willing to help orchestrate either at absolutely no cost.
“It is a great way to get out and know your neighbours,” City Planner Ryan Mackrell says. “Neighbours that know each other look out for each other, they feel a sense of community and belonging.”
