National Night Out in South Orange, always a well-attended and popular event, had an extra frisson of excitement this year. In addition to live music from Aisle Five, a public safety fair, Kids Zone inflatables and activities, free giveaways, food vendors and a screening of Big Hero 6, crowds were wowed by the landing of a NorthSTAR Medevac helicopter right in the middle of the fields by The Baird Center.
