National Night Out Against Crime moved to October
September 15, 2011
St. Peters, MO
This year tackle the crime, not the heat! The City of St. Peters’ annual National Night Out has moved from the heat of August to the cooler climate of fall. The event this year will take place on Tuesday, Oct. 4, from 6:30-9:30 p.m.
National Night Out provides an opportunity for residents to come together with local law enforcement and take an active stand towards crime. St. Peters residents are encouraged to turn on their outside lights and step outside and join their neighbors in a block party.
Sponsored by the National Association of Town Watch, the goal of National Night Out is to strengthen neighborhood and law enforcement partnerships to reduce crime. The St. Peters Police Department encourages participation in the event and accepts invitations to visit your block parties. Every year, officers hand out fun items to kids such as baseball cards and candy. Officers also make unscheduled visits to other National Night Out parties while out on patrol.
For more information or to request police visits to your National Night Out party, call ext. 3550 at either 636.278.2244 or 636.477.6600.
