Meet Nextdoor neighbors at dinner/meetup

There's an app/website called Nextdoor, you might have seen it. It's a micro-neighborhood-type thing where people post updates on various neighborhood events like crimewatch, block parties, things for sale, recommendations for a plumber, etc. It's a great way to get to know the neighbors. There are over 85 groups in Miami alone, each Neighborhood group covers just a few blocks, so it's very compact.

To that end, the City of Miami Police Department has chosen Nextdoor as their virtual neighborhood watch tool to supplement their existing crime watch program and increase the number of neighborhoods who are actively watching out for their neighbors. The MPD is having a dinner meetup to inform neighbors about Nextdoor. it's at the Miami Police College Auditorium on Tuesday, August 30 at 6:30 pm. The auditorium is at 350 NW 2nd Avenue.

You'll meet existing Miami Nextdoor Leads, learn the latest about Nextdoor, hear from Miami PD how they will use Nextdoor, and share your ideas and feedback with the Nextdoor team. Dinner is on Nextdoor for all attendees.

Please RSVP here to attend the meetup.
