National Night Out Tonight

Tonight is National Night Out. National Night Out is a way to foster community relationships and crime prevention sponsored by the National Association of Town Watch. Communities throughout the US will be having National Night Out activities tonight. According to the NNO website, National Night Out activities were also sponsored in communities in Canada as well as on military bases last year.

This evening of free activities may include block parties, games, exhibits, flashlight walks, music, balloon artists, and crime prevention demonstrations and information. You can check the NNO website to see if your town has been registered and is participating. There is a pdf file below the map of registered places that lists some of the military bases and Canadian towns participating. I would also check with your town's website as well as your park district's website for information.

This sounds like a great event that is not only full of fun but is also educational. It looks like it will be a great community event for the family!
