NNO 2023
Hello, Neighbors.
We thank 650 neighbors who came and enjoyed pizza, ice cream, the Crimson Blues Band, Brian the Bubble Guy, and a Chalk Art contest. That’s an increase of 150 attendees over last year. See a couple of pictures of the event in this email.
Our neighbors also got to meet and thank members of the San Jose Police Department and the California Highway Patrol, and of course, the firefighters and engines of Station 27 were again a big hit. We even got a fly-over and salute from an SJPD helicopter!
In addition, we had visits from Mayor Matt Mahan, our Councilmember Arjun Batra, State Senator Dave Cortese, and County Supervisor Sylvia Arenas. We thank the over 25 neighborhood volunteers who made the event possible, setting up, taking down, and handing out pizza. We also encourage our neighbors to support the local sponsors who contribute much to the event.
Helping again this year were the City of San Jose and Parks, Recreation and Neighborhood Services; PremierOne Credit Union; Grocery Outlet; Five Star Pizza, and Costco. We also welcomed two new sponsors: Starbucks and MedVet.
National Night Out will return next year on Tuesday, August 6th. We hope to see many of you again then. The Board of Los Paseos Neighborhood Association Greg Peck, Karen Lattin, Barbara Canup, Alan Chan, Herb Bowen, Lynne Steele, and Peter Chen

Tell your neighbors and gather up everyone and head on down to the park Tuesday August 1, 2023 from 5-8pm for food, fun, and music. Come meet other members of the community and enjoy the last summer hoorah before it’s time to send the kids back to school!
