National Night Out Block Party August 2021

As every year the Campus Parnassus Neighborhood Group celebrated National Night Out August 2021. Even under pandemic restrictions many neighbors gathered in front of Eric Arens and Elizabeth Saucier’s home. Neighborhood beat officers from the Berkeley police department visited and answered questions from neighbors while promoting a police-community partnership. Plenty of food, delicious desserts, and great wine made it easy to reconnect with our neighbors and discuss the latest developments. It felt good to gather as a community. The next National Night Out Block Party will occur August 2nd, 2022 from 6 to 8 pm again in front of Eric Arens and Elizabeth Saucier’s home. We all look forward to seeing you there again.

CAMPUS PARNASSUS NEIGHBORHOOD GROUP

Mission Statement 

The Campus Parnassus Neighborhood Group -- CPNG -- was initially formed in response to the 1989 earthquake and the 1991 Oakland fire.  The primary purpose of the group is to assist the neighborhood in responding to future disasters.  The group also works to coordinate with adjacent neighborhoods (including Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory) and City of Berkeley officials and personnel in responding to other neighborhood concerns, such as Crime Watch, sheltering in place, and street maintenance.  Click here for more on the specific activities and objectives of the CPNG.  

The CPNG needs everyone’s help.

• Emergency preparation begins at home -- be prepared.
• Be familiar with CPNG recommendations on what to do in an emergency.
• Participate in neighborhood meetings and on our planning committee.
• Take City of Berkeley CERT training classes.
