What is National Night Out? National Night Out is an effective and enjoyable program to promote neighborhood spirit and police-community partnerships. The event has been held annually since 1984 and is meant to increase awareness about police programs in communities, such as drug prevention, neighborhood watch and crime prevention efforts. Participants: Minor children must be accompanied by an adult. Participants should come dressed for the weather. There will be a one hour walk / parade around town to promote crime prevention and community spirit. The walk will begin at the Village Hall and end at Peeks Park.
