Special to Iredell Free News

The Mooresville Police Department is planning an event to bring the community together for a fun-filled “Afternoon Out.”

Scheduled for October 17, the four-hour, family-friendly event will kick off at 2 p.m. Officers will welcome everyone to Downtown Mooresville for food and fellowship. The event aims to strengthen the relationship between the police department and Mooresville residents in a positive environment.

The free event will have a similar feel to the department’s past National Night Out celebrations, and will include children’s activities and games, raffles and prizes, and a DJ.

Assistant Chief Robert Dyson said the department “really missed being able to hold a community event of this scale last year, so we hope this year can be more successful than ever.”
