June 10, 2019

Registration for National Night Out 2019 is now open!

This year’s event will take place on Tuesday, August 6. Annually, residents throughout the city of Richmond and across the nation lock their doors, turn on the outside lights, and spend the evening outside with neighbors and police.

Many neighborhoods throughout Richmond will be hosting a variety of special events such as block parties, cookouts, parades, flashlight walks, contests, and youth activities where police officers and other first responders will visit with residents.

National Night Out is designed to

1. Heighten crime and drug prevention awareness;

2. Generate support for, and participation in, local anti-crime efforts;

3. Strengthen neighborhood spirit and police‐community partnerships;

4. Send a message to criminals letting them know neighborhoods are organized and fighting back.

The National Night Out Kickoff event is 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Saturday, August 3 at the Target located at 7107 Forest Hill Avenue.  Join officers and our local partners as we gear up for another spectacular National Night Out!
