A SFPD officer introduces a police K9 to some kids (2012)
Next Tuesday night, the Richmond District station is inviting the neighborhood to stop by as part of National Night Out. The nationwide event is designed to develop partnerships between the police and fire departments, and the community.
The free event will be held at the SFPD station at 461 6th Avenue between Geary and Anza, from 5pm until 8pm.
There will be plenty of fun for all ages including a talking police car, a SFFD fire truck, a Golden Gate Park Police horse and K-9 patrol dog, a bouncy house and officers cooking up burgers on the grill. Hamburgers and drinks are free (until they run out!).
The one and only McGruff the crime dog has also been there the last couple of years.
This is a great chance to meet your neighborhood police officers and firemen, and enjoy some family fun. No RSVP is needed – just come by the station house between 5 and 8pm.
