National Night Out
National Night Out
On Tuesday, August 6, 2024 we will be celebrating National Night Out in Chesterfield. We will be joining forces with thousands of communities nationwide for the “41st Annual National Night Out” (NNO) crime and drug prevention event. National Night Out, which is sponsored by the National Neighborhood Watch and the Chesterfield Police Department, will involve over 10,000 communities from all 50 states.
We are encouraging our neighborhoods to host community events. The Chesterfield Police Department Community Affairs Unit as well as our Patrol Division will be visiting these neighborhood events from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m.
National Night Out is designed to 1: Heighten crime and drug prevention awareness; 2: Generate support for, and participation in, local anticrime efforts; 3: Strengthen neighborhood spirit and police-community partnerships; and 4: Send a message to criminals letting them know neighborhoods are organized and fighting back.
That night, residents in neighborhoods throughout Chesterfield and across the nation are asked to lock their doors, turn on outside lights and spend the evening outside with neighbors and police. The Chesterfield Police Department is looking forward to seeing everyone that night for a little fun and a lot of community spirit as we all work toward the goal of preventing crime and addiction.
For more information or to register your neighborhood event, please contact Community Affairs Officer Chad Meyer at 636-537-6769 (cmeyer@chesterfield.mo.us) and follow our Facebook Page.
