National Night Out 2025 is just around the corner, and the Kewanee Police Department is seeking support from the community. Operation Juice Box has been making a difference all year, providing Capri Sun juices to help build stronger neighborhood connections. To ensure this tradition continues, organizers are calling on residents to contribute by purchasing juice boxes or making donations. Those wishing to lend a hand can contact Officer Josh Carpenter through Messenger, contact the department directly, or drop off contributions at the police station. This effort aims to foster unity while keeping National Night Out festivities vibrant and inclusive for everyone involved.
Residents in Kewanee are invited to Northeast Park on Tuesday, August 5th, for National Night Out 2025. From 4:30 to 7:30 PM, the park will be buzzing with community activities, including a popular car show, family-friendly games, and interactive displays from local public safety agencies. The event aims to build stronger bonds between neighbors and those who serve and protect the city. Local organizations and businesses can take part by hosting tables or displays—interested parties are encouraged to contact Deputy Chief Michael Minx at [email protected] for more information. Mark your calendars and join in this celebration of community unity.
