Where To Find CHP And Martinez PD On 'National Night Out'

Don't forget -- the date is Tuesday, Aug. 4.

News from the CHP:

The California Highway Patrol will join our allied law enforcement agencies and our communities as we celebrate National Night Out 2015 on Tuesday, August 4.

National Night Out is a nationwide program designed to promote relationships between neighbors and to strengthen the bond between police and the community. Our goal is to make our neighborhoods safer, better places to live. Communities across the Bay Area will come together and celebrate through block parties, fairs, and other fun gatherings. By coming together, neighbors can meet one another and foster the neighborhood spirit, while sending a message to criminals that neighborhoods are organized and ready to fight crime.

Last year, over 40 million people participated in the 2014 National Night Out event.
