National Night Out

From the Redmond Police Department:

On Tuesday, Aug. 2, the Redmond Police Department is asking neighborhoods to participate in the 28th Annual National Night Out Against Crime. The police department, fire department, city council, mayor, and others will attend parties between the hours of 6:00 p.m. and 9:00 p.m.

We ask citizens of Redmond to turn their porch lights on and come outside to take a stand against crime with your neighbors. If you've never done this, it's a great event for fun, friends, and community!If you don't know your neighbors--this is a great opportunity to meet them.

All over the country there will be thousands of crime prevention block parties, cookouts, ice cream socials, dessert parties, and parades. Other neighborhoods will be hosting flashlight walks, safety fairs, poster and essay contests, and neighborhood meetings. This event is fun for all and gives criminals a "Going Away" party by showing the strong stand our community takes against crime.
