The city of Sammamish will join forces with thousands of communities nationwide for the 29th Annual “Night Out” on Aug. 7.

The Sammamish Police Department will also host Safe and Sound Sammamish in the Sammamish Commons Plaza from 2-5 p.m.

Police vehicles, along with stilt walkers and pole balancers from Circus Cascadia of Portland, Ore., will be on hand to entertain.

Kids can try their hand at hula-hoops or spinning plates, with the help of real live circus artists. There will also be a visit from PCC Kids Picks and free hotdogs.

Those interested in registering a block as a participant in the Sammamish citywide festivities can register at www.sammamishcitizencorps.com. The registration deadline is July 31.
