The City hosted National Night Out this year at the Maypearl Sports Complex. City employees from City Hall along with all of our Police Officers were there handing out numerous items for children and parents alike. Promoting topics such as Gun Safety, Drug Awareness, & Child Safety with free gunlocks, 911 magnets, Child ID kits and coloring books & stickers for the kids. We had a live band playing and the Maypearl Fire Department was on hand cooking out and giving away hotdogs and drinks to all in attendance. Representatives from the Ellis County Sheriffs Office as well as the local Texas Highway Patrol office were also present, and a great time was had by all that came out in support of our community.
