Crime, Events, Politics

Local ‘National Night Out’ events announced

National Night OutOn Tuesday, August 1, community groups around Baltimore County will celebrate National Night Out.

Residents are encouraged to turn on their front porch lights and join together to say “no” to crime in their neighborhoods.

Each community group will participate in its own way. Activities include rallies, block parties, parades, cookouts, and visits from local law enforcement and emergency personnel. The goal is the same for all: To show criminals that our community connections are strong. Baltimore County residents want to keep their neighborhoods safe for their families, visitors and the businesses.

Since its inception in 1984, National Night Out has grown from 2.7 million Americans participating in 400 communities in 23 states to more than 37 million people and 15,000 communities from all 50 states, United States territories, Canadian cities, and military bases around the world.
