Somerville's 10th Annual National Night Out

It's America's Night Out Against Crime!
Somerville's 10th Annual National Night Out" (NNO) for the City of Somerville, a unique crime/drug prevention event sponsored by the National Association of Town Watch (NATW), has been scheduled for Tuesday, August 6, 2013.
 
Last year's National Night Out campaign involved citizens, law enforcement agencies, civic groups, businesses, neighborhood organizations and local officials from over 15,000 communities from all 50 states, U.S. territories, Canadian cities and military bases worldwide. In all, over 34 million people participated in National Night Out 2010.

NATIONAL NIGHT OUT is designed to:

• Heighten crime and drug prevention awareness;
• Generate support for, and participation in, local anticrime programs;
• Strengthen neighborhood spirit and police-community partnerships; and
• Send a message to criminals letting them know that neighborhoods are organized and fighting back.

So, if we can bring together the City of Somerville, young and old, we can make a difference in people's lives. We will have tables, activities, and performances that can be fun and informative at the same time.

And finally, if you could pass this information on to anyone else that you think would like to participate, please do so.
