The 2016 event takes place on Tuesday, Aug. 2, at the Bluffton Community Swimming Pool. It is a joint project between Bluffton and Pandora police departments in cooperation with Bluffton, Pandora and Beaverdam-Richland Township EMS.

To cap off the evening, at dusk on Aug. 2 will be a fireworks display, sponsored by the Bluffton Area Chamber of Commerce.

A fireworks fund is already established for the 2016 National Night Out. The event sponsors invite businesses and individuals interested in a last-minute tax deduction on this year’s taxes to consider making a donation to the 2016 fireworks prior to Dec. 31.

Donations are tax deductible. They may be made in any amount to:

2016 Fireworks Fund

The fireworks costs approximately $9,000 and 100 percent of the contributions are donations from area businesses, individuals and organizations.

All events taking place at National Night Out are free and open to the community.
