BEVERLY HILLS—The Beverly Hills Police Department will be celebrating National Night Out on Tuesday, August 5.
National Night Out is an annual community-building campaign that promotes police-community partnerships and neighborhood camaraderie to make neighborhoods safer and more caring places to live. It provides a great opportunity to bring police and neighbors together under positive circumstances.
National Night Out was introduced in August 1984 through an already established network of law enforcement agencies, neighborhood watch groups, civic groups, state and regional crime prevention associations and volunteers across the nation. The first annual National Night Out involved 2.5 million neighbors across 400 communities in 23 states.
The event will take place from 5 p.m. thru 8 p.m. on the Block of N. Rexford Drive.
