“It will be an exciting event that will bring the community around the center together with local law enforcement,” said Kim Strong Lytle, director of School and Juvenile Court Programs at Envision Partnerships, which is hosting the event. “We are expecting over 300 youth and community members at this event.”
The goal each year has been to create a stronger bond between youth, families and law enforcement by creating a relaxed atmosphere with food, music and game.
“About 20 Hamilton police officers and deputies from the Butler County Sheriff’s office will be running the games and interacting with the kids,” Lytle said. “We expect it to be a great community event that brings local law enforcement, youth, and community together in a positive, fun, way.”
Some of the activities scheduled include:
- carnival games
- food/snow cones
- face painting
- performance by a magician
- music
- Hamilton fire truck on display
The event is free and open to the public.
