North Reading Night Out is Tuesday At Ipswich River Park
The 6th Annual National Night Out sponsored by North Reading Community Impact Team.
The North Reading Community Impact Team (CIT) will be sponsoring its sixth annual National Night Out (NNO) on Tuesday, August 6th at Ipswich River Park from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m.
National Night Out is an event focused on strengthening North Reading by encouraging neighborhoods to engage in stronger relationships with each other and with their local law enforcement partners. The goal is to heighten crime‐prevention awareness, build support and participation in local anti‐crime programs, and promote safety. Information on substance use and mental health are also featured. Last year, over 600 people attended NNO.
The CIT is seeking professionals and groups to host tables on safety, human services, and law enforcement topics. Table space for vendors is available free of charge. Approved vendors should be providing information to families and attendees on matters related to the event. In addition, community performers are welcome to apply for five presentation slots. These may include performing arts, groups and individuals of all ages. Sponsorship opportunities are also available.

National Night Out is an annual community-building campaign that promotes police-community partnerships and neighborhood camaraderie to make our neighborhoods safer, more caring places to live. National Night Out enhances the relationship between neighbors and law enforcement while bringing back a true sense of community. Furthermore, it provides a great opportunity to bring police and neighbors together under positive circumstances.
Millions of neighbors take part in National Night Out across thousands of communities from all fifty states, U.S. territories, Canadian cities, and military bases worldwide on the first Tuesday in August (Texas celebrates on the first Tuesday in October). Neighborhoods host block parties, festivals, parades, cookouts and various other community events with safety demonstrations, seminars, youth events, visits from emergency personnel, exhibits and much, much more.
