Letter to the editor: National Night Out

Letter To the Editor:

In 2008, the City of Mantorville, through its Park Board, started a city wide observation of National Night Out.  National Night Out is meant to bring neighborhoods together to get to know each other and promote a safer community.  2012 marked the fourth year of this event in Mantorville.  It has become a tradition that many people truly enjoy.  This year’s event was made possible with the generous monetary donations of area businesses and non monetary donations from several citizens and groups. 

I would like to thank the VFW Post 4555, Mantorville Saloon, Citizens State Bank, Gary Bromley – Bromley Repair, Kent Keller – Keller Properties and the Hubbell House for their monetary donations.   The Mantorville Fire Department contributes on every level.  Their setting up of tables,  cooking and entertainment for the kids is always a hit!!  Also,  thank you to all the people who continue to supply us great salads and desserts.   And don’t forget the Dodge County Sheriff’s Office, Dodge Center Ambulance and the American Red Cross for joining us and being visible to the public and available for questions and safety information that is the foundation for the event.
A special thank you to Paul Larsen,  Cami Reber our City Clerk, and my wife Lynnette for their priceless help and dedication getting this organized and put together on time!! 
I hope to see you all next year.

Luke Nash
Mayor of Mantorville, MN
