PLEASE NOTE:  Due to continued public health concerns and social distancing guidelines resulting from the ongoing pandemic, the Westerville Division of Police does not yet know the status of National Night Out for 2021.  Please check back as we will continue to monitor/evaluate the situation and provide updates as information becomes available.

National Night Out is an annual community-building event which usually takes place on the first Tuesday in August. Join up with your neighbors to participate in this public safety event. The evening is designed to:

(1) Heighten crime and drug prevention awareness; 

(2) Generate support for local anti-crime programs; 

(3) Promote neighborhood pride and police-community partnerships; and 

(4) Send a message to criminals that neighborhoods are organized and fighting back. 

National Night Out is unique because participating neighborhoods host block parties with activities including: potlucks, karaoke, face painting, raffles, police car rides, and an appearance from Scruff McGruff.
