National Night Out Photos, 10-03-2009
National statistics show that neighborhoods that actively watch after each other are between 17% and 51% less likely to be victims of crime.
These statistics prove why National Night Out (NNO) is vital to our community! NNO is an annual event designed to strengthen our communities by encouraging neighborhoods to engage in stronger relationships with each other and with their local law enforcement partners.
NSNA’s National Night Out date was Saturday, October 3rd from 4:00-6:00 p.m. held at three different sites:
717 Watson
3689 Douglass
Footbridges on Goodman between Park and Spottswood
The weather couldn’t have been ANY better- good decision to move our event from August to October!
Here are some pics from the event. Looking forward to next year!

The Normal Station annual picnic! Saturday, May 16th, 11am-1pm
Posted by Cliff in Event, NSNA, U of Memphis on May 1st, 2009
The Normal Station annual picnic is almost upon us again! It will be held on Saturday, May 16th on the U of M Alumni Center lawn (Normal and Spottswood) from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m.
The picnic is a great event to bring the whole family to as there will be games and activities for children, including a moon bounce. The alumni center lawn is a perfect spot to bring a lawn chair and a blanket to enjoy the great atmosphere there! Normal Station will cook hot dogs and have lots of good food for all neighbors, residents, and friends who come.
Normal Station has invited many city and county elected officials to the event, including Councilmen Jim Strickland, Shea Flinn, and Kemp Conrad. The Memphis Fire Department will be present and will have a fire truck on display at the picnic. There may possibly be a demonstration by the Memphis Police Department’s K-9 unit as well.
Also, there will be an information table providing information about the neighborhood, its activities, and how to get involved in the Normal Station Neighborhood Association. Membership dues are $15 per person per year, and we strongly encourage you to join! Normal Station is committed to recruiting/renewing at least 150 members this year.
For more information on how you can help, contact Christy Leard at 324-3732. We look forward to seeing you on the 16th!
