2017 NNO Party October 3
This year’s Gatlinburg NNO party will be Tuesday, October 3, 2017, 6 to 8 pm, at 807 Pigeon Forge Road, in the cul-de-sac as in previous years. Everyone is invited to come. An invitation flyer was distributed to every home on Pigeon Forge from 1200 to Dove Haven. Four yard signs were placed on Pigeon Forge and one at the Dove Haven entrance. Pflugerville police and city officials often stop by to say hello and chat. There will be about 120 NNO block parties throughout Pflugerville, if it matches 2016’s participation rate.

Your Vote Really Counts!
Just wanted to encourage you and neighbors to vote Saturday, August 6th in the special election for Place 2 City Council. All candidates deserve consideration too. It will be a low turnout election so your vote will make a BIG difference.

2013 NNO party a success on Pigeon Forge
We shared stories and gabbed about the weather and gardens. But we also exchanged serious information about home improvements that stop burglars. We encouraged each other to be vigilant watching for suspicious activity, maybe a crime in progress, at our neighbor’s house. We enjoyed hearing the crime prevention advice we learned from several police officers who visited. Thanks to everyone who volunteered to make this NNO possible.
New for 2013 in Gatlinburg
We’re starting Block Watch in Gatlinburg:

NNO – Tuesday, October 2, 2012
Come to 807 Pigeon Forge for a NNO Block Party
Time: 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM . . .
Free! All Gatlinburg residents welcome.
Although its fun to eat some snacks and meet police officers, NNO has a serious purpose: stopping crime with neighborhood Block Watch! The goal is for neighbors to band together so that criminals know they will be caught!
National Night Out – Oct. 4, 2011
There were no bad guys on Pigeon Forge Tuesday evening. Only good neighbors who were introducing themselves and catching up on local news. The gathering under the street light attracted about 22 people as well as several police, constable, assistant fire chief, and two city council members Starlet Sattler and Brad Marshall.
History
The Gatlinburg Neighborhood has a proud history of hosting block parities for National Night Out every year that I’ve lived here since 1997. For many years Janie Shrout hosted block parties for her Oat Meadow neighbors. Parties were hosted jointly by several families on Candleberry Circle for years too . For two years, NNO gatherings have been held at 606 Pigeon Forge by the Duffy’s and 807 Pigeon Forge by Jollie Williams and myself. Thanks to everyone, especially Officer Dan Griffith of PPD, for making NNO a success in Pflugerville. Continue reading National Night Out – Oct. 4, 2011
