Free music, food and law enforcement demonstrations at Kenner ...

Kenner Police will help open up the New Orleans-area celebrations of National Night Out Against Crime Sunday with the department's 13th Annual Kick-Off Party. The free event, which includes demonstrations by local law enforcement agencies, live music and children's activities, will be held from 2 to 6 p.m. at Laketown in Kenner.

The event is a prelude to Tuesday's National Night Out Against Crime, or at least the local version of the neighborhood gatherings which encourage residents to turn on their porch lights and unite in crime prevention. Most of the country celebrated the event back on Aug. 7.

But New Orleans-area police departments, sheriff's offices and community groups delayed the gatherings until the Fall for the first time last year because of complaints about sweltering temperatures in August. Departments followed suit again this year after seeing higher attendance numbers.

Kenner's National Night Out Against Crime Kick-Off Party will include booths with representatives from the Kenner Police Department, the New Orleans Police Department, the Jefferson Parish Sheriff's Office, the Gretna Police Department, U.S. Customs and Border Protection, the FBI and State Police.

The event will feature free food and live music throughout the day by New Orleans-based band Karma. Football fans will also catch a break with several large-screen televisions broadcasting the games. Other scheduled events include:

  • ?2:30 p.m.: U.S. Coast Guard helicopter demonstration
  • ?3:30 p.m.: Kenner Police and JPSO SWAT demonstration
  • 4 p.m.: Kenner Police K-9 demonstration.

The kick-off party will be held Sunday at Laketown on Williams Boulevard located at Lake Pontchartrain next to the Kenner boat launch and Treasure Chest Casino. Night Out Against Crime will be celebrated throughout the New Orleans area Tuesday.
