National Night Out, Santa Teresa Park, 8/1/17 by Ronald Horii
The Friends of Santa Teresa Park (FOSTP) held their first-ever National Night Out Event at the Bernal-Gulnac-Joice Ranch in Santa Teresa County Park on Tuesday August 1, 2017. This may have been the first National Night Out Event at any County Park. Santa Teresa Park has thousands of neighbors and plays a big role in their quality of life, so it's appropriate for a neighborhood event to be held here. It was organized by the Friends of Santa Teresa Park, with support from the Santa Clara County Parks and Recreation Department, Santa Clara County Sheriffs, United Neighborhoods of Santa Clara County, San Jose Fire Department, San Jose City Councilmember Sergio Jimenez, and the City of San Jose's Community Action and Pride Grant Program. Here are pictures from the event (captions later). They are mostly in chronological order, so they jump around a bit from one activity to another.
