Here is a bit of information regarding this year's National Night Out. Although we will not be planning an offical block party for this event it is still a good time to get out and meet your neighbors.

Associa CEO Direct:
A message from Mark Southall, President and CEO of Principal Management Group
Dear Board Members,
I
am thrilled to announce Associa and Principal Management Group of North
Texas as the national promotional sponsor for National Night Out 2012.
In fact, we are the only community management firm to partner with NNO.
Many
of you are familiar with National Night Out, have participated in the
past, or plan to participate this year. Last year’s NNO campaign
involved citizens, law enforcement agencies, civic groups, businesses,
neighborhood organizations and local officials from more than 15,000
communities from all 50 states, U.S. territories, Canadian cities and
military bases worldwide. This year’s event will be August 7th.
I cannot imagine a better collaboration for Associa and Principal Management Group.
Our
National Night Out sponsorship will kick off with a month-long Facebook
promotion. From July 2 to August 7, when an individual “Likes”
Associa’s Facebook page (www.facebook.com/associa),
he or she is entered into a sweepstakes to win a FREE Fall Safety Block
Party for the neighborhood. The Fall Safety Block Party is valued at
$2,500 and will include an appearance by the Associa Supports Kids
mascot Scout and
the NNO Knight mascot. The event could also include food, festivities,
entertainment, and police and fire department attendance.
There
will also be a National Night Out photo gallery on Associa’s Facebook
page. You can submit your own community event photos or photos from
this year or previous National Night Out events. In addition, for every
“Like” Associa receives, the company will donate $1 to the National
Night Out organization, up to $20,000.
I encourage you to share the Facebook Fall Safety Block Party promotion with your community and homeowners.
If
you are interested in hosting an NNO event, or if you are already
planning your event, make sure to register your neighborhood with
National Night Out at www.nno.org/nno/reg.html or
contact your community manager for assistance.
I
am excited to be the national promotional sponsor for National Night
Out 2012; even more so, to be the only community management firm
partnering with National Night Out.
Please feel free to contact me with any questions.
Sincerely,
Mark P. Southall, PCAM®, CPM®, AMS®, CMCA®President & CEOPrincipal Management Group, AAMC®, AMO®An Associa® Member Company12700 Park Central Drive, Suite 600Dallas, Texas 75251
