Mark Your Calendars! Getting Arizona Involved in Neighborhoods (G.A.I.N.) Event on October 19th!
Calling all neighbors! It's time to celebrate our community and strengthen those bonds that make our neighborhood a great place to live. SHAW BUTTE NEIGHBORHOOD ALLIANCE is thrilled to announce our upcoming G.A.I.N. event in partnership with nearby COX MEADOWS NEIGHBORHOOD BLOCK WATCH on Saturday, October 19th, from 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM.
What is G.A.I.N.?
G.A.I.N. stands for Get Active in Your Neighborhood. According to the city of Phoenix website, it's a program that promotes awareness, safety, and neighborhood unity across Arizona [1]. It's a fantastic local twist on the national National Night Out initiative, held traditionally in August. While National Night Out focuses on building relationships with local law enforcement, G.A.I.N. expands on that spirit of community by fostering connections between neighbors and offering a fun-filled day filled with activities for the whole family.
Why Participate?
There are countless reasons to join us at the G.A.I.N. event! Here are just a few:
Meet your neighbors! This is a perfect opportunity to introduce yourself to the friendly faces around you, build friendships, and create a stronger sense of belonging.
Family Fun for All Ages! We'll have a variety of activities planned to keep everyone entertained, including games, entertainment, and maybe even some friendly neighborhood competitions!
Learn about Local Resources! Representatives from local organizations and businesses will be present to share information about the fantastic services and support available right here in our community.
Connect with Public Safety! While National Night Out traditionally focuses on police-community partnerships, G.A.I.N. aims to strengthen that connection as well. Meet local officers and learn about safety tips for your family and home.
Enjoy Food and Fun! What's a community gathering without some refreshments? Expect delicious treats and festive vibes as we celebrate our neighborhood spirit!
