National Night Out is an annual event, held on the first Tuesday in August, to celebrate community, safety and service. Across the nation, neighbors gather to enjoy an evening of good food, music, games, safety demonstrations, visits from various first responder organizations and simply great conversation with friends, old and new.
For 37 years, law enforcement agencies have come together to create an evening under the stars that is filled with fun and games for the entire family. After a challenging year of limited social contact, this is an opportunity to reach out to those who, through it all, continued to serve and protect and did so with pride and a genuine desire to help their friends and neighbors. The uniform they wear represents the value they place upon creating a more caring place to live.
