Come to an Ice Cream Social With First Responders in the Basilica Courtyard on Aug. 4, 2026, during National Night Out

All are invited to an ice cream social as part of National Night Out (NNO) at the Basilica Courtyard on Tuesday, August 4, 2026, from 4-6 p.m. NNO is an annual community-building campaign that promotes police/fire department community partnerships and neighborhood camaraderie to make our neighborhoods safer, more caring places to live. The Alexandria Police Department and Alexandria Fire Department are expected to participate, but note that emergency calls will always take priority. The event is being organized by Greg Doherty, a Basilica parishioner. Interested in volunteering for this event?  Please contact Mary Marlowe at mmarlowe@stmaryoldtown.org
