5. Show you are #NorthglennProud --  join in on our community unity fun! You can give  a neighbor a Northglenn Hug sign. All ages are encouraged to color and post our "N" on home doors and on social media,  and we are asking residents to string up white holiday lights to show hope and solidarity in this trying time. Be kind, check on your neighbors and reach out to those who might need a helping hand (while respecting social distancing).
