City Of Boise: National Night Out Is Tuesday, August 3

Press release from the City of Boise:

July 28, 2021

This year in the City of Boise there are about 47 parties registered in Boise for National Night Out on August 3, 2021.  This annual event is all about getting to know your neighbors and developing stronger community-police partnerships.  National Night Out is celebrated across the country on the first Tuesday in August and is designed to help build safer and more caring communities.  Organizers who registered their parties with the Boise Police Department were able to request visits from police officers, firefighters, paramedics, the Mayor, City Council members, and other city agencies.

“We are excited to bring this event back and reconnect with neighbors after National Night Out was canceled last year due to the COVID-19 pandemic,” said Captain Mike Ruffalo from BPD’s Community Outreach Division. “The partnerships we have with our community help keep Boise the safe community it is today and will continue to do so long into the future.”

Please note the parties registered with Boise Police are subject to change by the organizers.  There may also be additional parties in your area that are not registered with the Boise Police Department. We encourage you to reach out to your neighbors or Homeowners Associations to see if anything is being planned where you live.
