National Night Out
Neighborhoods throughout Modesto are invited to join over 38 million neighbors across 17 thousand communities from all 50 states, U.S. territories and military bases worldwide.
National Night Out is nationally sponsored by NATW, 7-Eleven, ADT, AT&T, Dollar Tree, Family Dollar, FirstNet, L.E.A.D., Nintendo, Starbucks and co-sponsored by Modesto Police Department.
National Night Out is an annual community-building campaign that promotes strong police-community partnerships and neighborhood camaraderie to make our neighborhoods safer, more caring places to live and work.
Neighbors across the nation are asked to lock their doors, turn on their front porch lights and spend the evening outdoors with the community and law enforcement. Many communities celebrate National Night Out by hosting block parties, potlucks, youth events and visits from emergency personnel and more.
National Project Coordinator, Matt Peskin said, “This is a night for our nation to stand together and promote awareness, safety and neighborhood unity. National Night Out showcases the vital importance of police-community partnerships and citizen involvement. When law enforcement and the community work closely together, some amazing things can happen.
