It had all the elements of a small town summer party.

LOTS OF PHOTOS BELOW!

National Night Out, an event for communities to get to know their police officers came off like a charm on Tuesday evening.

This year's third annual NNO was even larger than last year - and we thought last year's night would be tough to top.

Kudos to the Bluffton and Pandora police, fire and EMS for a night to remember. Jamie Nygaard shares several of her photos of the evening. They follow people. Please enjoy!
