REDMOND, WA – The Redmond Police and Fire Departments are proud partners of National Night Out and offer neighborhood visits on Tuesday, Aug. 2, by Redmond police officers, firefighters, and elected officials. All Redmond residents are invited to register and plan neighborhood parties by Monday, July 25, at redmond.gov/NNO-2022.
National Night Out (NNO) is a combined effort by neighborhoods across the country to prevent crime and drugs in our communities. This unique event is sponsored by the National Association of Town Watch (NATW) and is held on the first Tuesday of August each year.
“We hope residents take the opportunity to gather with their neighbors and invite us to share in their celebration,” said Redmond Police Chief Darrell Lowe. “National Night Out is a fun opportunity to learn more about those around us and build stronger connections.”
When registering neighborhood events, you can request a visit from any of the participating safety departments. City staff will best match all requests and help make the night fun and informative. Registration is easy – just list the time, place, and which department you would prefer to attend. A response cannot be guaranteed once online registration closes due to high request volumes.
